Hovering In The Air

This is a final year project I supervised. The objective is to identify the dynamics of the hovercraft. Technical speaking, hovercraft is considered to be nondrifless, 2nd order nonholonomic (underactuated) system. (What a mouthful !!!). In layman's term, its dynamics is very difficult to quantify mathematically. This vehicle is employed as a prototyping platform for advanced guidance and controls algorithms.
My Hottie Laptop

Take a look inside my cool Laptop (Amilo 7280). She is two years old. During the last month, she gave up on me, becoming more and more temperamental, shutting off intermittently. Finally, I made a very difficult decision to dismantle her. Wow, found a big wool-size dust sticking to the radiator. No wonder she was so HOT ! ! ! :)
