Yes, he says that openly. See his facebook page- his notes point out his interest in girls and dating, by his own writing. he may have quit studying because of other strong reasons too.
There is something wrong with this reporter- dont you guys Google for info before you write absolute rubbish ?? This Diwakar Vaish bought these Ready made robots on-line and claims he "designed, created and programmed" all by himself !!! What a fraud! Anyone can buy these Patented Robot Toys on-line for a few dollars, along with all the Programs supplied by the manufacturers.
just type ROBONOVA or BIOLOID in Google search...
Glorifying a school kid who is a liar is a disgrace to his school , college and the Media.
We indians are the biggest hypocrites. Just can't stand someone from among us, doing anything innovative. We seem programmed to believe that its beyond an Indian's ability to produce anything original and all the innovations have to be of Western origins. The kid's just 18 and he's won an international competition for crying out loud. I bet those esteemed judges must be complete nitwits to award him if they saw no merit. Learn to appreciate other's abilities, you only stand to gain from that. Why be so negative all the time!

there is NO international Robotics competition at Quanta 2009. It is a creation of Diwakers own fertile imagination. Go to the quanta2009 page and see for yourself. Appreciation is for someone who does something on his own, and it will be there. This diwaker has bought a ready made toy and claims that he "designed" it. This is a lie and hence a fraud. It MUST be condemned - not applauded !

I would appreciate a kid if he actually did that. The media report saying he won an international competition is over hyped. The event he claims to have won, is not a KNOWN event even in the robotics circle in India. ALso, what he won, was a boat race, NOT a robotics one.
I work with humanoids, and I know these models. These models are ROBONOVA(the yeloow one) and BIOLOID. He just bought them online. And changed the name.,. Thats all he did. Should we appreciate him for that?? The kid got amazing TV and media coverage for his fraud. There are a lot of school kids in India who make amazing robots, and win Actual competitions. The robotics community in India knows them, but this kid is UNKNOWN.
I have a hundred links to prove his fraud. I will, definitely appreciate his ability to fool the entire press media. He is the best in it..
Overhyped kid... just blabbing me, me and me... Like no other robot can come close to his!!! This is utter bull s**t... Just winning some cr*p competetion, made him think he is the best... Grow up... REDIFF PLEASE STOP SUCH ARTICALS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD........
