Telugu NRI Teen Develops AI App to Detect Heart Disease in 7 Sec
Teen Prodigy Telugu NRI Creates Breakthrough AI App
A 14-year-old Telugu NRI student, Siddharth Nandyala, has developed an AI-powered app capable of detecting heart disease in just seven seconds. Reports suggest that the app delivers highly accurate results and could transform medical diagnosis.
Recognition from Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan
Siddharth recently met Andhra Pradesh CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan to showcase his innovation. Both leaders praised the young innovator for his contributions to artificial intelligence in healthcare.
Chandrababu Naidu acknowledged Siddharth’s achievements and assured full support from the Andhra Pradesh government. He also highlighted the global impact of Telugu talent, particularly in medical technology and AI.
Proven Accuracy at Guntur Government Hospital
The AI-powered heart disease detection app was successfully tested at Guntur Government General Hospital (GGH). Medical professionals confirmed its effectiveness in diagnosing heart-related conditions, reinforcing its potential for real-world applications.
The World’s Youngest Telugu NRI AI Certified Professional
Siddharth holds the title of the world’s youngest AI Certified Professional, recognized by ARM and Oracle. His passion for AI-driven solutions extends beyond heart disease detection. He has also developed:
✔ Fall Detection Band – An AI-powered wearable that detects falls and alerts caregivers.
✔ Diabetic Retinopathy Grading System – An AI tool that helps diagnose diabetic eye disease.
Family Background and Passion for STEM
Siddharth’s father, Mahesh Nandyala, is a serial entrepreneur in AI startups, while his mother, Srilatha, runs a jewelry business. Originally from Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh, the family moved to the US in 2010.
His interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) started at age seven, when his mother bought him his first electronics kit.
Siddharth also has a twin sister, Sowmya, who shares his entrepreneurial spirit.
Developing an Affordable Brain-Controlled Prosthetic Arm
Siddharth is currently working on a low-cost prosthetic arm controlled by brain signals using EEG (electroencephalography) technology.
Traditional prosthetic arms cost over $400,000.
Siddharth’s version will cost just $300, making it affordable.
The innovation is especially beneficial for children who need replacements as they grow.
He is currently refining the prototype at T-Works for commercial production.
Siddharth Nandyala’s contributions to AI in healthcare continue to receive global recognition. His journey as a young innovator proves that technology can create life-changing solutions for the world.
