About the Project

Ahmad’s invention, “Interactive Learning Surface” is an efficient and cost-efficient portable smart board. The device can be placed on any surface and becomes interactive with a click of a button. Unlike conventional smart boards available on the market, the board is affordable and portable.

Ahmad believes his invention will assist teachers in the classroom and will benefit students by making classroom presentations more visual and interactive. Contributing to the field of education and the culture of innovation is of utmost importance to Ahmad, as he feels such contribution serves as a primary tool in youth development.
