What is Greengineering Club?

We take our ideas and use them to solve problems in our community. Our club goal is to apply our skills and learn new skills to make something useful. At our meetings, we are currently discussing possible projects which include wind powered scooters and strandbeest sculptures. All the while, we want to be respectful of the environment and make the world greener.

WE WON A THING! (MAYBE TWO?)

Week of 11/27/17 the previous week, we were accepted to receive a 500$ grant from the PTSO to start building our bike shelter prototype. For this week we plan on finally ordering materials and hope to start building our prototype. Also, we may have won a Samsung solve for tomorrow contest, but the details of if we did or didn't are still unclear to us at this time.

My Project: Hawk Kite

The tentative plan is to make a kite in the shape of a bird which has speakers, lights, and a camera attached to it. The goal is to create something artistic with cool gadgets. I want to try to make the bird as realistic as possible, and hopefully, it will mimic the natural pattern that birds fly. As of now the materials will be: Nylon, plastic bags, balsa wood, string, and wires. The electronics are yet to be determined. The idea is to build the structure in a way that the the bird appears to be gliding. Next week, the plan is to build a prototype and sketch a more concrete plan.
