A set of anti-sleep glasses created by Salangi is intended to keep drivers from sleeping off while driving a vehicle, thus reducing accidents and enhancing road safety.
She was invited to the NASA camp to hone her abilities and design even more innovative devices after her invention captured their notice. In a conversation with ARY, Salangi emphasised Pakistanis’ potential and the value of tenacity in accomplishing extraordinary things.
Drowsy driving is a serious problem in Pakistan and across the globe since it endangers both drivers and other road users. According to the World Health Organisation, a sizable percentage of road traffic occurrences worldwide are caused by fatigue-related accidents.
Drowsy drivers are less aware, have more microsleep episodes, have trouble making decisions, and are more likely to drift or leave their lane. To solve this problem, it is critical to raise public knowledge about the risks of drowsy driving, recognise the symptoms of fatigue, prioritise getting enough rest, and promote alternate transportation options. Innovative solutions that have the potential to save many lives on the road are created in large part by inventors like Bisma Salangi.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
