HACK THE FUTURE 2

Yesterday, I went to the Tech Museum. There they had hacking classes for 5^th to 8^th grade. There were awesome stations. It was all about hacking. They had video game hacking, chess hacking, robot designing, android apps, LED and soldering, a station to do with using building blocks on internet, designing and brainstorming about what cool inventions you can make. Last but not least, they had a contest on the best website that was made. In first place, you would get $100 in cash, and for second place, you would get $50 in cash. Here, I am going to show you readers what I did. In this, I did not do :using building blocks on internet, video game hacking, and making your own website contest. However, I did the rest. In the designing and brainstorming about cool inventions, I made up 2 inventions. The first one that I invented was a phone. It is not just a phone, it is a foldable ,touchless,wireless,and electron charging phone. To use this phone, all you will have to do is give it commands and motions and start folding it. This phone never runs out of battery. Because this phone is a touchless phone, it is easier to use for blind and deaf. It has 2 modes. One of them is talk mode, where you give the phone commands by speaking, and the other is hand mode. Hand mode is when you give commands by using hand motions, or sign languages. You can fold it into a touchless laptop with same features as the phone. My next invention was a time machine that could go in the future, past, and prestent. This time machine had a seat that could recline backwards and forwards. It also had a board that had 3 buttons diagonally from top right to bottom left. The one in the top right was the future button, the next one was the present button, and the next one was the past button. It would only take 5 seconds to go to your destination. Now the next thing I want to talk about is chess hacking. In this, we had a prototype on wordpad. First you had to go the chess hacking website, then you had to download it on Mozilla Firefox, and then on wordpad. This was fun and easy, for you can change the rules of chess by turning all your pieces into queens. You could also change the color of the squares. The next one I want to talk about is the android apps. Here you needed an android phone and a computer. Last but not least, you need an instruction sheet. First you had to type what all the information that the sheet provided on your screen. Then you had to delete all of the comments that the computer wrote. At the end, you can connect your android phone to the computer and you can draw on the phone by using your phone. The next one I visited was LEDS and soldering. This is really fun. The instructors gave us a little robot board. First we soldered the battery box to it, then we put an LED in and soldered that in and then we inserted the battery so it could change colors. The last one is the robot controlling. This one needed a laptop. We typed in prototypes for it to move. Most of these things needed prototypes like : chess hacking, robot controlling, and android app one. I hope you readers who have children who are in 5th to 8th go to this yearly event in the Tech Museum. Thanks.
