FAISALABAD – Pakistani students stunned the audience at Faisalabad Science Festival 2018 with amazing inventions last week, earning praise from a number of visitors.
One of the young scientists is Asad Ullah, a student of 9th grade, who designed a circuit which converts AC (Alternating Current) voltage to DC (Direct Current) voltage and can control any electric gadget by clapping.
Asad’s project was displayed at the University of Agriculture Expo Centre, where the boy gave a demo of his ‘magical’ invention.
