There were so many extraordinary inventions that the judges had a hard time coming up with the 3 Top Awards!! These three stood out from a field of fantastic inventions. Several other inventions were awarded Special Awards.
Rose Moules is a 5th Grader at Watsonville Charter School of the Arts in Watsonville and has been awarded The Eagan Family Foundation’s Most Innovative Invention Award for her invention Safe Bathroom Solver.
Safe Bathroom Solver Problem / Solution statement: On a plane, the bathroom is first come first serve. There is nowhere safe to stand. You can be waiting in your seat for someone to leave 0 – but when they do, someone else jumps up and gets there before you. Sometimes the pilot makes you sit back down and you have to start over. My invention allows you to press a button for the bathroom from your seat. So you enter a virtual queue and you are notified when you are next. I searched all over google, tik tok, YouTube, and could not find anything like it. The only thing I could find was how dangerous it is to stand in line for the bathroom, however it is the only thing you can do.
