St. Paul's School from Concord, New Hampshire, received a 2006 InvenTeams grant from the Lemelson-MIT Program to create a fall sensor for the elderly -- a wearable device that transmits a nursing home patient's motion to a nurse's station that monitors the data. In this video, the InvenTeam presents its project at the InvenTeams Odyssey, held at MIT in June 2006.

Upper Darby High School from Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania, received a 2006 InvenTeams grant from the Lemelson-MIT Program to invent an omni-directional wheelchair. In this video, the InvenTeam presents its prototype at MIT, upon completion of the grant. As demonstrated, the wheelchair is capable of translational, lateral and rotational movements.

Nerinx Hall High School from Webster Groves, Missouri, received a 2006 InvenTeams grant from the Lemelson-MIT Program to invent the Water Treatment and Transportation Apparatus (WTTA). In this video, the InvenTeam presents its prototype at MIT, upon completion of the grant. Inspired by two students who visited southern Mexico during a spring-break service trip, this device is designed to ease the burden on women who are tasked with hauling five-gallon buckets of water to their homes and provide cleaner water for their households' use.
