The Pen - Year 10 Student - “When a customer buys the pen, a machine records the user’s name. When lost or broken, the machine detects -- lost and sends a £200 fine." This will stop people loosing or throwing away their pens.

Paper Recouping Machine - Year 10 Student - “It is like a printer but replaces rough paper with clean paper.” “I am making a new machine that will stop every human being from cutting down trees for paper. This machine will have 2 slots. One for unwanted and unused paper. The other slot will print out new clean paper. The machine will work by solar energy from the sun. The energy will be stored for later use so no need to waste more energy. It will have 2 LED lights showing that there is no paper left.”

Super iPod - Year 10 Student - “This super iPod works like a normal iPod. The only difference is this super iPod does not need electricity and runs off solar energy. It will work under the sun or moon and it will tell the weather.”

The Solar-Sucker - Year 8 Student - “During the day it doesn’t use the stored energy but the energy it is absorbing. The reserved energy is used in the night.
