Erfan Nouraee's innovative solution

TORONTO - July 5, 2024 - PRLog -- At 16 years old, Erfan Nouraee has invented a device to detect noise to signal ratio in fibre optic communications (inspired by the broadband digital divide), a mental health app, and was named Geneva International Invention and Innovation Award recipient in 2021, among other notable accomplishments. But with his laser-focused commitment and a personality that "sparkles," what makes his really unique is his ability to encourage other young people to realize their full potential.

Nouraee developed a device that detects the particles of light. He said he was inspired to build that by the broadband digital divide.

He's also used technology to tackle climate change and mental health challenges.

Nouraee says he wants to inspire others to get into science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields.

Because, from personal experience, it's not easy when you don't see anyone else like you. So I really want to put out that message: Everyone can be an inventor.

Nouraee was chosen from a field of more than 1000 inventors from 35 countries.

He is a TEDx speaker, the recipient of the 2021 International Invention and Innovation Award, and in 2016 was named Iran's Top Young Scientist and included on the Khawrazmi Award recipients list.

Nouraee spent months trying to convince local high schools and colleges to give him 0lab time to continue his experiment.

At home, Nouraee worked on his project in the "science room" he asked his parents to create for him.
