UGA students win $400K, donate $400K to hurricane relief with single field goal kick

Student inventors win $400,000

UGA students and recent graduates won $400,000 for inventing a device that detects concussions in real-time. The device, called the Concussion Recognition Instrument, or CRI, was developed by a team of students and researchers at the University of Georgia. The CRI uses a combination of sensors to measure head movement and impact forces. It can then use that data to determine whether or not a person has suffered a concussion.

Device donated to hurricane relief

The students decided to donate all of the prize money to hurricane relief efforts in Florida and Puerto Rico. "We wanted to use this money to help people who have been affected by these storms," said team member Jacob Robinson. "We know that this money will make a difference in their lives." The students' donation will help to provide food, water, and shelter to people who have been displaced by the hurricanes. It will also help to fund repairs to damaged homes and businesses.

UGA students make a difference

The students' invention and their decision to donate the prize money are a testament to the power of young people to make a difference in the world. "These students are an inspiration to us all," said UGA President Jere Morehead. "They have shown us that anything is possible if we work together and never give up on our dreams."
