In order to promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, the U.S. Army named its 2010 eCybermission first-place teams today. The eCybermission program is managed by the U.S. Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command, and has awarded more than $1 million to students.
Sixteen teams traveled to Baltimore to compete in the 2010 judging and vie for first place. Winners include the “Hardheads,” who traveled from Los Angeles and experimented with materials in sports helmets to prevent injuries; the “Wavematers” from Oregon, who conducted experiments with wave power as a form of renewable energy; and the “Landroids” of New Jersey, who experimented with using sound waves to prevent deer-car collisions.
