March Buzzband Update

Happy Spring! 

The BuzzBand team had an exciting month. We kicked off March with a presentation for Pennsylvania Congressman Mike Doyle. He left many insightful comments about our project and even participated in our media board activity!

In addition, as members of the FIRST Girls of Steel Robotics team, the BuzzBand team competed at two regional competitions - Greater Pittsburgh Regional and Buckeye. At both competitions we discussed the BuzzBand with multiple judges. The judges were impressed with our progress and offered us advice and their contact information. We look forward to potentially reaching out to them in the future!

Behind the scenes our team is working with patent attorneys and just finished getting the BuzzBand to the patent-pending stage. We are so appreciative of our patent attorneys for believing in our idea and we hope to continue the legal progress for patenting the BuzzBand.

Finally, after speaking with the Carnegie Science Center, we have two potential sensory days to learn and volunteer. We may be able to share information about the BuzzBand with adults on the autism spectrum during one of the sensory days!

We can’t wait to see what April will hold for the BuzzBand team. 

Get Busy Buzzing!!
