The Valley STEM+ME2 Academy InvenTeam is rearing up for the Mid-Grant Technical Review is coming up this February! December and January have been dedicated to prototyping in many forms: we finally have built the basic framework, our camera system is up and running and waiting to be installed, and research on detection systems is coming to a head. Creative planning has been done as a group for our upcoming presentations and we hope to do well with that. Overall, it’s been a productive month and we hope for the next one to be even better!
