Here are my favorite concepts/products from the competition:
- A study of what makes a person chose to be a 'furry' creature in an Internet based Role-playing game. This student used the example of the game 'Second Life' to present his idea that choosing a Furry character allows the user to express his inner self in a different way.
- Chemical microchip nets that identify contamination in a subject water. This chip allows scientists to check subject water reservoirs for contamination without using lab checks of the water every few hours. Saving money and time.
- Again with water contamination, this time with Lead Ion contamination. Here the students found a way of using a plant that will absorb all the ions whilst under microwave energy.
- A GPS system for sensory handicapped people. Blind, deaf and mute people have a hard time finding their way through cities. These students created a system that interfaces between these sensorially handicapped people and a computer oprated GPS system.
- Designing and creating computer networks can be a diffecult thing. these 3 students created a matrix algorithem program that simulates network trafic and statistics and thus designing a better system.
