A Canadian teen with a passion for artificial intelligence has created a robot she hopes will someday help guide people with visual impairments.
After watching a video about the hardships faced by some people who use guide dogs, 14-year-old Kaia Pejsa said she chose to design and build a robotic guide dog prototype for a STEM project at her school.
“My ultimate goal is to make the lives of other people better,” said Pejsa, who is a Grade 8 student at Magnetic Hill School in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada.
