Event 2





I went to this exhibit, Drone Sweet Drone, on May 5th in the EDA room. The exhibit was pretty interesting, i've never seen anything like it. It was little room with just drones on the wall and wine and cheese on the side. Once i asked Anne Niemetz what these drones actually meant, she answered by saying it's the 'installation by a embroidered drone swarm using Arduino technology. Also she stated how important these such drones are to our lives today.

 This is a picture of the description of the exhibit.

Besides they're being a video played on the side of the room, this was the exhibit entirely. These blue circles on the wall were drone designs that were lighting up on certain parts of each drone. It wasn't as exciting as i assumed it would be, it was pretty plain but her description of what these drones mean to her really helped me try to find a deeper meaning for these drones.

The video above shows what the lights look like and how cool the drone looks.
                                                                                              
This drone here was my favorite out of all drones. Not only did the words "Trust me" catch my attention,but the actual drone itself. it actually looks like our football team uses to record our practices and gathers data.
