2016 · Robots, drones, fixing the line
I taught line-following robots, programmed robotic arms, and designed a mechanical funnel that caught newspapers falling mid-run at a printing plant. My final-year drone detects crop disease, and an eye-blink device helped partially paralysed users send messages.
