Jai Gupta, a high school student of Step by Step School, New Delhi; has a strong passion for robotics since he was in grade 4. His desire to empower children; led him to envision Project WIRED.
Technology and automation is the future of this world and it is our job to make sure that every single young mind is equipped to adapt to that future.
Jai’s passion for robotics started when he was gifted his first Lego kit at the age of five. Since then, there has been no looking back. He joined RoboClub (a robotics institute in New Delhi) and began his journey of building and coding.
During the past 11 years, Jai has participated in numerous national competitions and represented India at international competitions. He has innovated robotics products such as a walking stick for the blind, recycling of grey water in showers, controlling radioactivity for astronauts and improving physiotherapy in the sports vertical.
Jai strongly feels for social causes and strives to work for the betterment of people, especially children. During covid, he spent a lot of his time tutoring kids in his locality. It is his desire to help children from economically challenged backgrounds that brought him to found Project WIRED. Through this he wishes to empower the youth in the field of robotics.
When he is not thinking about robots, or designing them, Jai can be found dribbling around in a basketball court or tapping away on the tabla.
