"Age is an issue of psyche over the issue. If it's all the same to you, it doesn't make any difference." — Mark Twain

For 21-year-old Gagandeep Reehal, age has never been a test with regards to accomplishing his objectives. Occupied with making India's self-driving vehicle dream work out, he is the prime supporter of Minus Zero, a startup that intends to fabricate moderate self-driving electric vehicles in India.

Recently, in April, Gagandeep and his fellow benefactor additionally directed India's first self-driving test live in Jalandhar — with an electric auto rickshaw.

Created in just four months with a simple measure of Rs 50,000, this three-wheeler model played out a few muddled driving moves that are uncommon for Indian streets.

The vehicle, Gagandeep claims, depends on its camera suite, with zero conditions on path markings and costly LiDARs, and is fueled by an exceptionally computationally proficient AI and less reliant upon information

Just in the second year of his lone wolf's in designing, Gagandeep is as of now an AI analyst, creator, technologist, and business person, associated with different tasks identified with Applied Artificial Intelligence, Product Design, and between disciplinary exploration across psychological and human-focused AI, and independent vehicles and mechanical technology.

Gagandeep is additionally a coach, and has made a decision about over 65 designer and hacking occasions around the world, expressed at driving meetings, and is a visitor speaker at a few esteemed establishments like NIT Hamirpur, IITs, among others.

The existence of self-learning

Gagandeep's first step towards self-learning began in quite a while extremely youthful days — perusing books his mom would blessing him.

"This likewise pushed me to investigate new learning assets, and discover my inclinations at a serious beginning phase," he says.

Getting his first work area and web association opened up an entirely different universe of learning for Gagandeep — with Google, YouTube, online assets, and coding. When he was 16, he was at that point exploring different avenues regarding blockchain, AI, and mechanical technology.

Gagandeep was only 16-years of age when he distributed his first book. From that point forward, he has distributed three more, and his pieces have additionally been highlighted in a few magazines and diaries.

Driving innovations from India

Gagandeep got intrigued by self-driving vehicles during the primary year of designing while at the same time composing an exploration paper on the best way to lessen AI reliance on the information.

As of now, AI is a lot of ward on the information. For example, an organization assembling a self-driving vehicle should gather around 2 million miles of driving information to make the vehicle exact in only one city.

"Not exclusively is information assortment an expensive undertaking yet to keep it refreshed continuously is an unselfish errand, especially for a nation like India where street development never stops," he adds.

Following the top-bottom learning approach

Adapting normally has a base down approach where individuals learn something and afterward figure out how to execute that learning.

Then again, Gagandeep puts stock in a hierarchical methodology. As per him, if you need to chip away at something, begin dealing with it with the assistance of assets, learning as you work.

As a geek, Gagandeep trusts it isn't simply imperative to be an expert of one's space yet additionally have authority abilities to have the option to execute one's vision and scale it further with constant advancement.

Additionally, as far as he might be concerned, a thought shouldn't be large or little, a Tier-I or Tier-III item. What is important is "the way you approach a specific issue".

It's not rosy at all ends

Being a star kid isn't simple. While building this lucky list of references Gagandeep likewise confronted a few difficulties.

At 16, he was determined to have a fanatical impulsive issue (OCD), which prompted outrageous drug. This was likewise when he found his energy for composing. As he got charmed recorded as a hard copy books and independently publishing them, Gagandeep defeated his OCD when he completed school.

The second-greatest blow, he says, was getting admission to Oxford University, however not accepting a grant.
