Senior Design's Complete

It's been a crazy-busy semester, but we completed the primary design for LEVITATE last Monday (5/4). We presented the design to the UW community this past Wednesday; see the 46 minute mark in the presentation video. See also our final report (and bear in mind that the group collectively had 6 hours of sleep in the three preceding days...).

Next up we're heading to Madison East High School to participate in their annual Math Week event. We hope to show the students how useful and pervasive math is in engineering and cool projects.

After the outreach event we'll be heading to the RASC-AL competition in Cocoa Beach, FL, June 7-9. For this competition we'll be polishing some of the rough edges, especially the power, communications, and living elements. Before the competition we'll also project our design into a possible lunar exploration scenario to evaluate the vehicles operation.
