Kudos to these kids. These are some of the things we want our Ghanaians journalists and bloggers to talk about, but some of them only talk about unnecessary things.Thank you, my son, for showing us. But the school should have shown it to social media in time, not this time. For me, it is only today that I have seen and heard about this.

[@mathshubgh]

The reason why this projects don't normally go far is because most of the components used are very basic components but we lack the technology to make them. So I believe if we have those technologies,we will be able to make projects from scratch. People who know more about this tech stuffs will not see it as something really big not because the idea is not a good idea,but because we only get components and assemble. A lot of students can do this if they learn and get the support but the only thing that will make it special is when we have the technology to come up with projects from scratch other than buying parts and assembling. I hope we get the support to do more of this,because I can see the youth is ready.

[@klaw1425]

It’s surprising how little understanding there seems to be about the process of turning student inventions into finished products. To clarify: when a student comes up with an invention or idea, the next step is not for the government to manufacture it. Instead, the usual process involves reaching out to technological manufacturers or companies that specialize in developing and producing such innovations. These manufacturers have the expertise and resources needed to refine the concept, create prototypes, and eventually produce the finished product on a larger scale. The role of schools, government, or other institutions is often limited to providing support, guidance, or funding during the early stages of research and development-not handling production. Understanding this distinction is critical for anyone involved in innovation. It’s the manufacturers who play a pivotal role in transforming ideas into market-ready products, not the government or unrelated entities.

You’re right but sadly, we do not have the required industrial platforms for manufacturing. It’s up to the government to create an enabling environment for manufacturing and industrialization so that indigenous people can step into manufacturing and take charge of such innovations. If we do not do that now, the Chinese will steal these technologies and we will eventually lose ownership.

Obuasi Sec Tech is really great! …Great project, but calling it 'AI powered' is misleading. This is clearly an Arduino/microcontroller project using sensors and automation - not artificial intelligence(AI) . It's important to label projects correctly so learners can understand the difference between AI and electronic automation(embedded systems), as they require different learning approaches and resources
