Currently, innovation awards are non-ribbon awards. This was to make them more visible to individuals not involved in SARA's work to help the SAOY be cutting edge, and therefore spur people to get involved.
Most notably, the invention of a new technology that was adopted by the SAOY resulted in the award of a platinum belt buckle, which helped provide a talking point to encourage others to also invent new technologies.
However, with the recent addition of further non-combat ribbons, it may be time to bring innovation awards into the standard battery of ribbons.
While four exist, only three need conversion:
Thanks.

While four exist, only three need conversion:
- The Platinum Belt Buckle, for inventing a technology then adopted by the SAOY
- The Golden Caliper, for fabricating the final prototype/version of a technology that was then adopted by the SAOY
- The Golden Pin, for participating in a successful field test of a technology that was later adopted by the SAOY.
Thanks.
