3) Is there a particular module or project that you were particularly passionate about? Can you share details on it?
I loved the Drone to Busan module I took part in when we were in South Korea. We had to program our drones to accomplish a goal of our design. My favorite part of this project was collaborating with another student to combine technology and art. We used our drones to trace light paths and capture them using long exposure photography. I loved reiterating over the code and endlessly modifying it until we achieved our final result.
