A project developed in Konya, which won 3rd place at
TEKNOFEST, allows the detection of individuals' innate abilities through
fingerprint analysis.
In Konya, Murat Sezer and his team secured 3rd place among
123,001 teams in the TEKNOFEST Education Technologies Competition, whose finals
took place in Istanbul. Additionally, their project, which also won the 1st
prize for presentation, enables the identification of individuals' innate and
predisposed abilities through fingerprint analysis. The goal of this project is
to guide children towards fields where they can excel in their future
professions and lives.
Murat Sezer, explaining that they have developed an
artificial intelligence-supported algorithm, stated, "We can determine the
innate abilities of children or adults by examining their fingerprints. What
motivated us to do this was the aim to improve the country's success in
education. Just as our bodies have anatomy, structure, blood values, features,
and colors, we thought that fingerprints might also hold clues to abilities, so
we started researching. We conducted research from 2015 to 2017 and started our
project in 2017. We have been continuing our project and research for about 7
years now. In the last 2 periods, we have achieved success at TEKNOFEST as
well. We secured 1st place in the presentation category and ranked 3rd among
123,001 participants in the project. Currently, our research papers are also
being published internationally."
Murat Sezer mentioned that the project has been tested on
approximately 3,000 individuals and achieved a success rate ranging from 84% to
94%.
