\Science projects by two students from Fox Chapel Area Senior High School, Pittsburgh, have earned special recognition from Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC) for excellence in computer programming. Sonia Appasamy designed a computerized tool that helps people with visual impairment by automatically converting a camera feed or a photographic image to a simplified, more cartoon-like image with sharper boundaries and contrasts. Suvir Mirchandani created a web browsing system that scans eye movement and brain waves to allow people who do not have use of their arms to surf the Internet. “These students used pretty simple ideas to come up with tools that are complex and effective,” says Anirban Jana, senior computational scientist at PSC, who selected the winners from among the entrants of the Pittsburgh Regional Science and Engineering Fair in March. While the students’ use of advanced technology was remarkable, he adds, an important differentiator was their grasp of the technologies they were using and their ability to explain them.
