Konstant Novák is a 17-year-old immigrant and brilliant inventor driven by a fierce desire to prove himself in a world that often isolates him. His ingenuity shines through his groundbreaking invention, the Skyboy, a gravity-repulsor device that defies failing infrastructure and reimagines urban mobility. Beneath his pride and ambition lies a journey of personal growth as he learns the value of collaboration and trust when faced with life-threatening challenges.
Technical Skill: Mastery of engineering, coding, or mechanics.
Creativity: Ability to think outside the box and innovate.
Improvisation: Adaptability and problem-solving in high-pressure situations.
Collaboration: Willingness and ability to work effectively in a team.
Leadership: Initiative and ability to guide others toward a common goal.
Societal Impact: The potential of their work to create widespread, meaningful change.
Gravity Repulsor: Utilizes mini fluctuating gravity wells to counteract Earth's gravitational pull. Inspired by his mother’s research, the device incorporates a rotational conveyor for stabilization and lift. The technology eliminates the need for rotor-based systems, drastically reducing energy consumption compared to conventional solutions like drones.
Initially struggled to find a suitable power source capable of adjusting for real-time fluctuations, akin to RPM changes in an engine. Ultimately integrated a PowerRing cell, a customizable and efficient energy unit designed for high-demand systems like subway cars and large machinery.
Constructed with chrome motorcycle fenders welded together for a durable yet lightweight chassis. Individual mass resistometers are calibrated meticulously to ensure precise functionality and safety. Assembled using parts from a scrapyard, demonstrating resourcefulness and ingenuity.
Fully piloted, intuitive to operate, and designed to be mass-produced at a low cost. Intended to provide a solution for urban mobility, bypassing failing infrastructure like roads and bridges. Potential applications include improving supply chain logistics and mass production of critical goods such as life-saving drugs.
