Stuyvesant students brought us #GenerationBitcoin. Now, teens from their robotics team won the Earth Prize, a global environmental competition for teenagers, taking home $12,500. The project came to life when Zhi Han (Anthony) Yao, Flint Mueller, and James Clare, all students from NYCโ€™s Stuyvesant High School, received a shipment of robotic motors. Unfortunately, the motors arrived damaged, with delicate brass pins bent and unusable. This firsthand experience sparked the teensโ€™ motivation to rethink how products are protected during shipping. Rather than accept packaging failures as part of life, the trio got to work. Inspired by kirigami โ€” the #Japanese art of cutting and folding paper โ€” they designed Kiriboard: a lattice-cut cardboard sheet that can flexibly mold around an object, cushioning it securely inside a box.
