Young Inventors Award

[J.Warsoff]

Does anyone remember the name of the award that student received in St. Louis for his invention? I go inspired by that and may be entering something for it next year.

Thanks! Looks like I'm going to be quite busy this summer with this project!

Thank you, Kelly! I will be sure to do that once I get started.

Does anybody know who won the award, and what their invention consisted of? Just curious, can't find anything regarding the award winner on the FIRST site.

[Mark McLeod]

The winner was Ben Mattinson from FRC team 2840
Perhaps the invention needs patenting before it can be announced. Ask Kelly the patent attorney:)

[kellymc]

I will talk to Ben soon and let him know there is interest in seeing his invention.

Yes his was the eye-controlled writing device, i believe?

My invention is going to be search and rescue based, but also multi-role. It's gonna be so much work, but so worth it.
