Leonardo Da Vinci once said, “Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.” The Kashmir World Foundation has adopted this timeless philosophy for the benefit of the world in which we live.
Apparently, there is truth to Da Vinci’s words. Art, science, and technology, if interwoven, can have the potential to effect positive change and our non-profit organization has realized this potential. We are currently developing expertly crafted drones to combat poaching in Africa so that endangered species may flourish. Thanks to the ingenuity of our engineers, we are saving precious animals from a terrible fate.
The world is slowly becoming a better place but there is so much more that can be done. Sufficient energy should be devoted to global improvement and we are happy to invest our collective effort. More than anything else, Kashmir World Foundation wants everyone in the world to become involved in noble causes for the sake of our future. Our beautiful earth deserves that kind of participation. We seek to set an example for the younger generations in the hope of bringing about a paradise for posterity. We, at Kashmir World Foundation, want to leave a legacy. It is for this reason that we are reaching out to the youth in our community.
The DaVinci Challenge: Build A Drone Workshop is an avenue towards this end. It is a constructive solution to one of the world’s most horrible problems.
Kashmir Robotics is happy to host Build A Drone Workshop, as part of the DaVinci Challenge. During the workshop, an experienced engineer will instruct participants how to construct an operational quad-copter drone using an advanced carbon-fiber body, propulsion components, sensors, and autopilot applications. The workshop will also include a comprehensive tutorial on flight maneuvers and the integration of robotic systems.
Participants will have a chance to engage in learning, receive a Drone Operators Certificate and become immersed in a new hobby. The National Geographic will record footage of the workshop to be featured in the project’s documentary, The Wildlife Conservation UAV Challenge.
The Kashmir World Foundation encourages people of all ages to come join us for the rest of the filming days of the Build A Drone Workshop from 9:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. at the Great Falls Library on 9890 Georgetown Pike on July 19, Aug. 2, and Aug. 9. Although it is too late to register for the workshop, we hope to share this experience with others in our community.
