Shark Tracking Outreach Program
January 1, 2012Dynamic Network for Aquatic Robots (DYNAR) in Collaboration with Claremont Graduate University Engineering/Mathematics, 2011-12
Liaison(s): Rachel Levy, Allon Percus
Advisor(s): Weiqing Gu, Erin Byrne
Students(s): Sarah Warkentin (PM-F), Spencer Tung (PM-S), Matthew Richman, Sydney Hanson (F), Hannah Kastein (F), Kevin Kim (S), Michelle Fenxiao Chen (S)
The DYNAR Clinic team has developed a self-contained educational activity that uses robotics to introduce high school students to engineering and related mathematics. The high school students will build an inexpensive, aquatic, remotely operated vehicle (ROV), then use mathematical techniques to track a target using the ROV.
