University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC) - eVTOL aircraft design and development
My role in this ambitious project encompasses designing the XAF-23 vehicle, providing captivating visuals, integrating Augmented and Virtual Reality technologies into the development process mentoring student teams to craft explanatory animations, and utilising 3D-Printing. A standout aspect of our initiative is the developmental approach, which actively involves students and professionals. This collaborative model brings diverse perspectives and skills to the table and serves as an invaluable educational platform for the next generation of engineers and designers.
In collaboration with Tim Kelly, the Aeronautical Engineer and UniSC Special Projects Lead, we're shaping the future of transportation. As the principal architect, Tim has been instrumental in the eVTOL craft's foundational design. As part of my role at the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing Hub (ARM Hub), our collective mission is clear: to revolutionise commutes, with a spotlight on the potential to drastically cut down travel durations, such as the journey between the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane in time for the 2032 Olympics and highlights my unwavering commitment to driving innovation in the Australian transportation landscape.
