Great to have insightful with subbarao and Dr. Srinivasa, and Shekar joining in from San Diago via video link. By measuring eye movement really accurately and analyzing the recorded patterns, it is possible to diagnose hard to detect problems related to balance and neuro disorders. It was fascinating to see them courageously breaking new grounds as they demonstrated custom built hardware, fully made in India with more than 1400 scans already done on the ground across 40+ clinics. Also great to see the robust and mature discussion along applying ML, when medical protocols also might have to be tuned to the new breakthroughs. Thanks NGV for providing logistics help, and vocal AI community for joining us. Singhal Umakant Soni Shamik Sharma

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake

It was great to have such an enthusiastic audience (they had almost 50+questions) for on the Ugadi day, along with seasoned AI founder from VideoKen, Ashish Vikram and Vaibhav, Chief data scientist. They gave detailed insights about how they are building collaborative learning solutions by leveraging Machine learning. Their solution is very useful in this age of MOOCs, where users want to find relevant part in a video quickly. We also had Jeff Smith and Ryan Dotson, joining us from Smithsonian Institution along with Shamik Sharma. Thanks to 91springboard NGV for the beautiful venue.
