Projects
Cyanobattery
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic bacteria that can be used as fuel generation. We are genetically modifying cyanobacteria to develop a cost-effective, renewable, and biodegradable energy source.
Turtle UAV
We are designing a drone that monitors endangered sea turtles to improve data collection. The drone will use computer vision to record individuals that are marked with AprilTags: a harmless mechanical “stamp”.
Blueprint Conference
Blueprint is our annual environmental ideation conference. Students worldwide develop feasible solutions to pressing environmental issues with the help of world-renowned professionals for a chance to win seed grants to develop their solution.
