In landing the Curiosity Rover on Mars, what
different teams were needed to solve each of the
problems?
The Challenge: Survey a Disaster Area
The Challenge: EYW Engineering Co. has been contracted to design and build a
reusable system that can survey a remote disaster area once dropped from a specified altitude. Your task is to work in teams to
build a device that must capture pictures,
during descent, of a specified target. It must
have controlled descent and will signal once
the device has landed safely.
Teams can be formed using the
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
What is your MBTI “type”?
Let’s all take a simplified version of the MBTI survey:
