MONTANA STUDENTS ON THE CUTTING EDGE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
(Mr. ROSENDALE asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. ROSENDALE. Mr. Speaker, Montana students have always been on the
cutting edge of science and technology. Today, I rise to give special
recognition to a group of students from Helena who may soon impact the
way that we all travel.
Earlier this month, a robotics team from Helena introduced new
equipment that the TSA hopes will reduce wait times at airport
security. The team, known as Fusion 4133, is renowned for its technical
expertise, winning the 2023 Montana regional championship and
qualifying for an international competition.
What makes Fusion's design for TSA so remarkable is its simplicity.
Using a 3D printer, the students designed a ramp that will allow bags
to flow seamlessly through airport screening systems.
The bright group of inventors are living proof that no one is too
young to pioneer new technologies. I am confident their work will
expedite travel for millions worldwide. It is my privilege to recognize
them on the floor of the United States House of Representatives.
