Imagine how cool it would be to have your own motorized robot hand. Well, stop imagining and turn that
daydream into reality! Start out by designing and building a robot hand. The Science Buddies project
Grasping With Straws: Make a Robot Hand Using Drinking Straws
shows you a simple way to make a robot
hand with drinking straws, or you can design a robot hand from any other materials you think are suitable. Your hand design will need sewing threads, or some other mechanism, for motors to…

Have you heard that garlic powder is supposed to inhibit the growth of bacteria? Which do you think would make a better disinfectant: a solution of garlic powder or a solution of bleach? This project shows you a straightforward way to compare the effectiveness of different disinfectants (or other antimicrobial agents), by measuring zones of inhibition on a culture plate.

Have you ever had to take prescription medicine to get over an illness? To get better, it is important to take the
medication in the proper manner and at the proper time. Wouldn't it be cool if there were a tool or piece of automated
equipment that held your medicine and reminded you to take it? A tool that would know when you picked up the bottle and
took your medicine? Building a smart medicine cabinet is what this science project is all about!

Have you ever noticed that on a hot day, it's more comfortable to wear a light-colored shirt than a dark one? Or that it's cooler in a park than walking down a street? This happens because different surfaces absorb and reflect heat in different ways. Urban heat islands are parts of cities where man-made surfaces like pavement and buildings replace natural surfaces like grass and trees. In this project, you will use temperature and satellite data to see if certain areas in a city have higher…

In the mid-20th century, people thought of robots as futuristic tools. But in the 21st century, robots are not a figment of our imaginations, but are a part of our reality. Robots even perform tasks that humans can't do. In this engineering science fair project, you will use LEGO Mindstorms to build a robot that is fast, lightweight, and stable. Who knows? You might end up building a robot that does housework or even your homework!
