Inventions and Innovations
1st Place at Technosphere! Now we're going to Nationals to take on the rest of the country.
Participants investigate and determine the need for an invention or innovation of a device, system or process. Team members will 1) create a prototype or model, 2) develop a standalone multimedia presentation and 3) document work completed as they prepare to promote and demonstrate their idea for the invention or innovation. Semifinalists make an oral presentation to a panel of judges who will act as a group of venture capitalists interested in providing funding for the development of the idea.
"The Lean Alert" was designed to help save hunters lives and reduce the risk of falling out of tree stands to drowsiness. The students created a WORKING prototype that activates a buzzer when leaned to far to one side, as if the hunter was falling asleep and beginning to fall out of his or her tree stand. The buzzer "Alerts" the hunter, awaking them and saving them from a dangerous fall.
