Last updated: 2025-09-16 (America/Chicago)

4.1 ROV / Underwater Capture (student-built)

ROV build as capture/installation support adjacent to portfolio works.

• Artifacts to (re)gather
  • Build photos
  • Tether/camera notes
  • Placement plan alongside sampler images
• Next micro-step: One paragraph on how ROV footage converses with images.

4.2 FPV Micro-Whoop Build/Fly Track

Solder → assembly → simulator (Velocidrone) → flight; safety & crash choreography.

• Artifacts to (re)gather
  • Parts list v1
  • Build photos
  • Simulator lesson captures
• Next micro-step: Lock a baseline parts list with prices.

4.3 Arduino Driving-Base Bots

IO & voltage control foundations; vibe/expressivity.

• Artifacts to (re)gather
  • Demo videos of “personality moves”
  • Wiring one-pagers
• Next micro-step: Record a single 30-sec demo of a “mood routine.”
