In 2013, 18-year-old Charalambos Ioannou made it to 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.
Chr. Ioannou's extra-skeletal glove was one of 15's best works "for the good of mankind" that excelled in the Google Science contest.
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 her team 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 Endeavour and his or her school will get a one-year digital access to the Scientific American scientific journal. The winners of the age classes will choose whether they want to be in the backstage of the factory LEGO in Billund, Denmark, or "to experience unique experiences" at her offices Google or his National Geographic.
2014, Google has added two new awards, the Computer Science Award to be awarded to work reflecting innovation and excellence in IT and the Local Winners Award for student projects that solve a problem in their local community (in selected places worldwide). Finally, Scientific American's Science In Action Award will again honor a project that will address health, resource or environmental challenges. The winner will receive one year of guidance from Scientific American and one 50.000 dollar sponsorship for his work.
