G1(Galvez1) Mako

Last year, at the age of 15, I began a yearly routine of working on a significant project to test and expand my skills. My first project was building an AI-controlled robotic arm, which I took on to challenge myself and explore the capabilities of AI and robotics.

This year, I’ve started working on an ESP32-controlled submarine. The idea for this project came from my desire to continue pushing my boundaries. Alongside building the submarine, I’ve been documenting the process and sharing it on TikTok and YouTube. Even though I’m not getting a lot of views, creating this content keeps me motivated.

Unfortunately, I haven’t completed the submarine yet due to a busy summer filled with AP Lang and AP US History assignments. However, I’ve made significant progress: I’ve finished the receiver and controller, and I’m almost done with the propeller system. All that’s left is to print out the remaining parts, fix any mistakes, and complete the project.
