Jha also uploaded a demo video showcasing the simulation. In the nearly-4-minutes long video, various features like enabling asymptomatic people, social distancing, forced distancing, etc., are demonstrated. There is also a game mode that lets you control the dot and try to avoid any contact with other people in the simulator.
Jha, who also intends on minoring in Entrepreneurship, has worked on several other projects. One of his projects includes PPE4NYC, which was developed to provide Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) during the coronavirus pandemic. The website attracted over USD 5,000 in donations and hundreds of masks to the local police and hospitals.
