WESTLAKE TECHMATE WINS NATIONAL TITLE IN INVENTORS COMPETION

Tech Directions magazine has just released the best entries of the annual
Inventors Award competition. This year’s challenge called for students to develop unconventional ways to provide electricity to remote villages. Winning first place and the national title was senior SCOTT HULVER
.

Hulver invented a solar-powered blimp that could deliver re-chargeable batteries and then on a pre-programmed path, stop by and re-chargethem as needed. The competition was judged by inventor and electrical engineer Harry Roman. In his judges comments, Roman stated that not only was his invention highly unique, it was worthy of much greater investigation and maybe even a patent.

The article, illustrations, and a full description of all the top inventions can be seen on the TechDirections magazine online version.
