Personal Project Exhibition 2026: Innovation in Action
Jakarta, Indonesia, February 13, 2026 — This year, Sinarmas World Academy’s (SWA) Grade 10 Personal Project became a journey of exploration and growth, as students investigated personal interests and developed meaningful products grounded in inquiry and perseverance.
In engineering and robotics, Julia refined a VEX competition robot, Zhenxuan developed OceanVoyager for coral restoration, Damar designed LifeBox for emergency survival, and Ricky explored a biomimetic drone for ethical wildlife observation. Atanasius connected architecture and psychology through Eunoia Sanctuary, examining how space influences well-being.
In assistive technology and AI, Kate presented LUMA, an EEG-based communication concept for individuals with speech impairments; Hye Joo engineered a low-cost EMG-controlled prosthetic arm prototype, and Samarth designed Stride, an AI-powered navigation device for the visually impaired.
Sustainability-driven projects included Ana’s ocean sculptures created from recycled marine waste, William’s eco-friendly shuttlecock, Richard’s vertical farming prototype, Alanna’s upcycled fashion collection, and Zach’s renewable, unpowered water cycle system that connects environmental
Social impact and digital awareness were central to Jay’s poverty awareness website, Nanette’s crime prevention booklet, Qiara’s teen self-discovery platform WAYR, and Chloe’s cybersecurity project, Project Janus.
In the creative and performance sphere, Adriana launched her avant-garde couture concept Ä-Savant, Bridget produced a silent short film on phone addiction, Felicia developed an animation project, Cici combined choreography with teaching, Liam built a volleyball learning platform, and Chloe authored a forensic mystery novella. Meanwhile, Zuriel applied engineering to everyday life through a remote-controlled car vacuum designed to encourage positive habits.
Whether engineering assistive technologies, addressing environmental challenges, producing original artistic works, or designing tools for community impact, the Personal Project reflects discipline, inquiry, and the courage to test ideas against real limitations, and the result is a collection of creators who understand that meaningful innovation is built through persistence, responsibility, and purpose.
