| The objective of the wind sensor project is to build a wind sensor that is low cost, small, reliable, durable, and has no moving parts. The current model is the Kiwi Passive Acoustic Anemometer, which is built using microphones. We want our sensor to detect wind speed and direction in 2D. Once a complete, working model is built, it will be integrated to the weatherbox. The data from the wind sensor can be used for predicting where buildings can be built with natural ventilation. | The objective of the wind sensor project is to build a wind sensor that is low cost, small, reliable, durable, and has no moving parts.

| + | ===== Individual Expectations ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | We expect everyone to: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **Be self directed** - ask questions and find out the things that you need to | ||
| + | * **Communicate** - make sure that you keep in communication with everyone. Check your emails, use slack, etc. | ||
| + | * **Help others** - within reason, help others... we're in this lab together and at some point, everyone has helped each other out | ||
| + | * **Be responsible** - if you're expected to do something, follow up on it and take responsibility for it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Outcomes ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The biggest thing we can offer students is the chance to explore themselves in a technical and professional sense. For 296 students especially, it's important to figure out what you're interested in and how you can move towards your goal. Students who have been to our lab gain experience in the following things: | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Teamwork | ||
| + | - Communication | ||
| + | - Empathy | ||
| + | - Learning | ||
| + | - Sustainability and renewable energy | ||
