Meet Fathia Abdullahi, a young 12 year old developer from Nigeira. Fathia is the brain behind the robot with the ability to fold clothes. “This is the T-shirt folder,” the young Nigerian told Reuters. “I made it because there are too much clothes to fold on....
...Saturdays and Sundays when you wash a lot. I made it using pins, some beams, and an EV3 brick,” she told Reuters.

The EV3 brick is a programmable circuit that works as the heart of LEGO’s Mindstorms Education robots, they are meant to be robots that kids....
....can build and program themselves to carry out basic functions.

The robot is just a prototype, however it’s capable of folding an item of clothing once you lay it out, and it just takes three seconds.
She says she plans to develop the device further and then sell it at local markets to help make people’s chores easier.

Isn't this amazing?
Who says you are too young to develop that idea?
Shoot your shot, go, girl!
