Competition in Switzerland: Gymnasium Köniz-Lerbermatt wins
The first prize for best presentation on Spin-Off Day was given to Gymnasium Köniz-Lerbermatt (Berne) and the class of Irma Mgeladze. The subject of their presentation was a solar clock that was based on Grätzel cells and utilised integrated colored LEDs. The solar clock was designed to be hung up on a wall, i.e. in the class room. The jury was well convinced by the students’ working process. The students elaborated to the jury on how they applied and modified the technology, in particular with how they could build and improve the solar clock. The class plans to further improve their solar clock for the final presentation in the European final, which for this the jury wishes Gymnasium Köniz-Lerbermatt the best of luck!
