Westwood on the Cutting Edge

It is coiled heating wires on the roof of a car that will heat snow off of the roof in the winter and prevent accidents.  This will come in handy in northern areas and Canada.  It uses an Emotiv to sense the environment to sense snow and turn on the heaters.
People will learn math, science, and physics from this project.  They will learn how an emotiv works because the emotiv will sense the temperature outside and turn on the coils to heat the outer shell of the car, which will melt the ice and snow.  When the car turns on, the emotiv will automatically detect the temperature of the environment, and detect if their is any weight on the roof of the car and will activate the heating coils.
