LAHS InvenTeam at EurekaFest 2013 Recap

This past week we had the privilege of traveling as a team to MIT for the annual EurekaFest hosted by the Lemelson MIT Program. We would like to thank the Lemelson MIT Foundation, MIT, the Boston Museum of Science, and Justin Lai and Leigh Estabrooks who have helped us with our project throughout the year. It has been an amazing experience for all of us and it is one that we will remember for years to come. The amount of innovation and ideas we saw at EurekaFest has inspired us to continue inventing and pursuing STEM fields. We will continue to work on improving our invention and hope to keep in touch with the incredible students, mentors, administrators, and professors we have me along the way. Thank you again to all who have made this trip possible and we hope to return soon :)
