Do you have bright ideas? Ideas for inventions that change society or at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes, but we don’t often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for Tomorrow. The competition encouraged young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest: Group One was for schoolchildren over 16. And there were eleven prize winners altogether.
Nell Hunt, one of the prize-winners, was called "Sunshine Superman" by one newspaper writing about his design. It’s important when people study the weather to be able to record sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Nell’s is more accurate and this is very important for research into ways of using solar power. With his prize of $100, Neil plans to carry on inventing.
You can do so much with animation. Look at Simon West’s idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or farther from them. This is not a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. "We found that people were more likely to see moving signs," said Simon. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains moving, horses galloping or a car falling over the edge(边沿) of a cliff (悬崖). Quite a warning!
The ideas in the competition were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesn’t ask more schoolchildren for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of "pupil power"!
