Hi, I am a 20 y/o Computer Science major, graduating in 2026 from the College of Engineering.
Hi! I’m a current sophomore from Denver studying CS in COE graduating in 2026. Outside of constantly plugging and replugging our hardware and messing around with CSS, I love to read, travel (im a national parks fiend), hike, and ski. I'm also blind and don't wear my glasses so if I can't see you, it's not personal 👁️👁️

Caroline is a freshman who enjoys being the very best that no one ever was. 6:30 is the best time on a clock, hands down.

Ground Server
Handles image transmission, geolocation, tagging, and distribution to other systems. Think of it as a central hub on the ground, sending commands to and receiving images from the plane, and distributing information to other systems.
Plane System
The plane system runs on our onboard computer handling image capture, gimbal control, and telemetry recording. The plane system communicates with the ground server, receiving commands to take images or point the gimbal, and responds with images and telemetry data.
Mission Progress Page
An extension of the ground server frontend that displays a live status of the current mission. This includes live footage from our onboard auxiliary cameras, as well as key metrics such as the number of images received/processed, total target sightings, regions of interest, and much more valuable information.
Plane System Modes
Plane system modes control the behavior of the camera and the gimbal corresponding to different stages of flight/competition. Examples include
ROI Scheduling
Region of Interest (ROI) scheduling is an attempt at capturing higher quality images of targets. After flying over the search area, we identify regions of interest where we expect there to be targets. Taking these estimated locations, we zoom the camera closer to the ground and attempt to track these regions with our gimbal.
