Mohammed, as a teenager, dreamt of becoming a robotics innovator
as he was growing up in Sarseer village in Sulaimanyah. He spent his free time
making paper models and manufacturing the parts to build robots and other
electronic devices on the rooftop of the family home. When the economic crisis
began, he moved into his uncle's workshop. Eventually, he was prevented from
going to school, and he spent his time creating a model of his ideas. He
recreated famous devices and blended them with modern technologies to create a
futuristic vision. When he heard about our program he thought he can get more
support to his projects and now he feels that there are too much support for
