In 2013, 18-year-old Charalambos Ioannou climbed the list of 15 finalists of an international science competition for children aged 13-18 organized by Google. He had made an extra-skeletal glove on the occasion of his desire to help his grandmother catch and be able to control the remote control.
The exoskeleton glove of Ch. John was one of the 15 best works "for the good of humanity" distinguished in the competition Google Science.
The fourth Google Science Fair contest starts with registration submissions until 12 May 2014.
The grand winner of the Google Science Fair 2014 will join the team of Virgin Galactic at Spaceport America in New Mexico as its members prepare for space flight. They will also be among those welcoming the astronauts upon their return to Earth. He will also participate in a ten-day excursion to the Galapagos Islands from National Geographic Endeavor and school he/she will receive a year's digital access to Scientific American. Age category winners will choose whether they want to go behind the scenes of the factory LEGO in Billund, Denmark, or "to experience unique experiences" at her offices Google or his National Geographic.
In 2014, Google has added two new awards, the Desktop Science Award που θα απονεμηθεί στο έργο που θα αντικατοπτρίζει την καινοτομία και την αριστεία στην πληροφορική και το Local Winners Award για έργα μαθητών που επιλύουν ένα ζήτημα στην τοπική τους κοινότητα (σε επιλεγμένα μέρη παγκοσμίως). Τέλος, το Science In Action Award του Scientific American θα τιμήσει και πάλι ένα έργο που θα απαντά σε προcalls σχετικές με την υγεία, την εύρεση πόρων ή το περιβάλλον. Ο νικητής θα λάβει ένα χρόνο καθοδήγηση από το Scientific American και μία χορηγία 50.000 δολαρίων για το έργο του.
