Tertiary Objectives
Project wise, the last week has been taken up mainly by writing up project documents and proposals. I heard somewhere that approximately 60% of engineers work these days is not 'engineering stuff' (i.e. programming, designing ect) but paperwork and report writing. I concur that this is true in most of the engineering jobs that I have had (Telstra and Tectonica) and also with any of the projects that we complete at uni.
I have to list some project objectives - I have listed primary and secondary objectives (things we would like to do). I need to add in some tertiary objectives - things that given and infinite budget, and time we might consider completing for our project. One idea is a visual based landing system - a camera onboard the plane which will sight the runway and line the plane directly up with the runway and land it. Yes this is hard - but theoretically possibly, although very hard.
Anyone with any ideas? What would you like your personal unmanned aerial vehicle to automatically do for you?
