Hi there I am an electrical engineering student from strathclyde who loves getting angry when my projects don't go to plan!

I am in third year so really just what the university has thrown at me so far. We are building a device that can accurately hover a ping pong ball at a certain height whilst measuring what height it is at. It's pretty cool I just hope I can get it done on time.
