We’re so happy to share that Michelle has won the State Illinois Junior Science and Humanities Symposium for her research. This is her third time winning the award, but it will be her first opportunity to attend Nationals and present her research in person in April. In addition, Michelle also received a $2,000 scholarship.
As we’ve detailed before, Michelle Wang has been continuing her fine work on her drone project, building on her experiences with the GFF at MIT this last summer. Since then, Michelle has been hard at work continuing in her research and furthering her project entitled, “An Autonomous Drone Object Detection and Tracking Capabilities.” The video below shows the drone taking one of its first flights.
Congratulations, Michelle — we are so proud of you!
In the video above, the drone is trying to center the stop sign in the camera frame.
