Babula Gouda, a Class IX student from the remote Khajuribania village in Odisha’s Ganjam district, has improvised the traditional ‘Talari’ hat to develop ‘smart-Talari’.
About:
‘Talari’ is a large hat made of bamboo or cane that protects agricultural labourers in Odisha from the sun and rain when they work in the fields.
The ‘smart-Talari’ developed by Babula Gouda, using locally available materials, generates solar power to run gadgets added to it.
Now the solar powered ‘smart-Talari’ has two small fans to cool working farmers and a light to help at night.
It also has a FM radio and audio player kit for entertainment and weather forecast.
