**Week-2**

**PICTURE OF THE WEEK**

{{ :20240827_074520.jpg?400 |}}

As you can see this image, it's a Closed-Circuit TeleVision (CCTV) operated with help of solar energy generated by the solar panels connected to it. The reason I took this image because it was something I have never seen in India and because of its very convenient feature of moving it to someplace else if we want it with the help of wheels attached to it. 

I could not meet anyone in this week.

Talking about Las Vegas Culture in a generic way, I would say people are too punctual and respect their and everyone else's time.

In this Week, I started working on Gas Delivery Drone Project with Hashim Hameed and Koreen Inah Rafanaan. With Koreen, I started my Drone Flight Training where I had to do a square pattern by keeping the drone floating but still not elevate it to greater heights. After working on it throughout the week, I got good at it. I also worked on Virtual Inertial Odometry (VIO) with SD Card Imaging, Robotic Operating System (ROS) Installation and also finally the Takeoff Script on NVIDIA Jetson Nano for the purpose of the automated flight of the drone. This setup could not be finished in this Week and went into the following week. I also got a project with BaekSeok Kim on Humanoid Slider where I first trained and tested a different Humanoid Model given by him.

So, In this week, I've learnt about basics of ROS Programming, SD Card Imaging and Drone Flight.
