About the solution
The device is basically a leather golf glove that transmits the wearer’s hand movements to words on a hand-held monitor. His invention won the top prize at the Siemens Westinghouse Science and Technology Competition.
The device got Patterson a full-ride Boettcher Foundation scholarship.
