SnotBot | Dragon Drone Squadron

It's gotten colder here in Boston so the Dragon Drone Squadron has moved indoors. Dr. Andrew Bennett, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Olin College, gave a presentation to the Squadron all about the SnotBot. Got your attention now?

The SnotBot is a drone that collects whale snot for the purpose of research that ultimately supports whale conservation. You can view the full SnotBot presentation here and watch a recording of the lecture below:
