The science exhibition held as part of the Revenue District Educational Fair concluded at Government GHSS, Cotton Hill, on Wednesday. School students of twelve sub-districts participated in the event.

Vivek C R and Sree Ganga B S of New Higher Secondary School, Nellimoodu, displayed a public transportation facility which works on electromagnetic induction with minimal fuel consumption and energy loss. They were inspired by an article in ‘Reader’s Digest’ on the Korean Government’s implementation of a road transport system using electromagnetic induction.

Another interesting display was a ‘Wireless helmet ignition’ presented by Atheerth Chandran and Aromal M S of AMHSS, Thirumala. The helmet conceived by them ensures safety of the passenger and even helps him in case of an emergency by sending an automatic alert to 108. The model also has an anti-theft alarm.

Another interesting model was a ‘rhetrolic wheelchair’ a very useful equipment for elders and the physically-challenged, designed by Greeshma M S and Jollymol J of St Chrysostom Girls HSS, Nellimoodu.

Congrats to all the young science wizards!
