The now 11-year-old started working starting working on the model at the age of 10. She initially delved into learning about different eye conditions, algorithms, computer machine, machine learning models and advanced levels of Apple iOS to create a product capable to detect potential diseases and conditions such as Melanoma and Cataract.
She further revealed, “the App was developed natively with SwiftUI without any third-party libraries or packages, and it took six months of research and development to bring this innovative app to life”, as mentioned in her Linkedin post.
Both the Dubai-based Indian sisters with exceptionally bright minds have currently the whole world’s eyes stuck on them due to their intelligence and passion for coding.
