Miky, a remarkable teenage inventor and recipient of the Thailand Youth Award 2023, began his journey in innovation at the age of 8. His invention, the "I-See" cap, was designed to assist the blind in avoiding collisions with overhanging signs. Through The Thailand Association of the Blind, Miky is helping to distribute the I-See cap to enhance the safety and mobility of visually impaired individuals. His "Smart Chair for the Elderly and Leg Rehabilitation" won the Public's Choice Award at the Global Student Innovation Challenge (gSIC) during the 16th International Convention on Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology 2023, as well as a Gold Medal at the 5th China (Shanghai) International Invention & Innovation Expo in 2021. Miky was awarded the Nikola Tesla Prize for his Positive Pressure Cabinet designed to protect healthcare workers from infection risks during patient treatment, and his Smart Solar Cell secured the Nikola Tesla Prize at the 2021 AT&T Inventor's Challenge. Miky draws inspiration from role models such as Spider-Man—for his resourcefulness and commitment to helping others—and Nikola Tesla. Miky is currently working on a new invention to address global warming.
