Invention Story
"The Food Transfer 2023 keeps my hamster fit and full! The Hamster runs on a hamster wheel, which creates energy as it spins. That energy powers a car on a track to go and get loaded up with hamster food and then make the journey around the track to be hamster on his wheel. The car also has a back-up solar panel in the hamster needs to have a little rest."
Mathew
Mathew did a great job working up his invention idea at the first Pioneer session in Preston Park Museum. He added a solar panel to the car to create even more energy and changed his idea from a rollercoaster to a loop of track to make the food delivery more energy efficient. What a superb way to make his excellent idea even better!

Mathew spent more time at home developing and thinking about his idea using the activities in his Inventor's Log.
Digital animator Katy Hackers met up with Mathew and his teacher over a video call to talk about how the animation was progressing and to get Mathew's feedback.
