Twelve-year-old Rebecca Young was named one of TIME Magazine's "Girls of the Year" for inventing a solar-powered, wearable heated blanket designed to protect homeless individuals from freezing temperatures.

The invention, developed with engineering support from Thales, utilizes flexible solar panels and a battery-powered heating system, with prototypes currently undergoing testing by local charities.

The young innovator from Kelvinside Academy came up with the idea at age 11 after seeing rough sleepers struggling through freezing winters in her hometown. Her portable invention, which folds directly into a backpack, collects solar energy during the day using small flexible panels and stores it in a compact battery pack. At night, this stored energy powers internal copper wiring to provide up to eight hours of emission-free warmth without requiring access to mains electricity.

The design initially won the prestigious MacRobert Commendation Medal in the UK Primary Engineer Leaders Award competition, standing out among more than 70,000 entries.

Impressed by the concept, the global engineering firm Thales turned her school drawing into a fully functional, waterproof, and flame-retardant prototype. The first batch of functional blankets has already been distributed to local charities, including Homeless Project Scotland, to help vulnerable individuals stay warm during extreme weather.

This is evoBOT, a robot helper developed by Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics.

It can grasp and carry goods to support cargo workers in transporting packages.

evoBOT can also move smoothly across uneven terrain, including bumpy surfaces and sloping ground.
