When I was a university student, drones were starting to get popular so I decided to make my own. I made two attempt at the idea: The first attempt involved designing the most of drone from scratch, its mechanical design as well as its electronics, including the remote controller. After that attempt proved less than satisfactory, I designed a new version of the drone, this time with off the shelf electronics.

When I was in the army, we would often have exercises where we need to setup some equipment in the field and establish a security perimeter around to prevent access from unauthorized personnel. During those exercises, the sergeants and lieutenants would sometimes disguise themselves as enemies and try to access the equipment to see how successful we would be at stopping them. I didn't like the idea of staying alert for long periods of time and instead wanted to receive some kind of warning whenever a superior would be arriving in our vicinity so I designed a GPS tracker that I intended to put on his car.
