The event was held on December 6 at McCamish Pavilion, and cash prizes were awarded to both discipline-specific and interdisciplinary teams.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ECapstone Design is a culminating senior-level course, where students work in teams to design, build, and test prototypes with real world applications. At the end of each fall and spring semester, students showcase their efforts at the Capstone Design Expo.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EWinning the ECE prize was \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/expo.gatech.edu\/projects\/415\/\u0022\u003ERaising the Steaks\u003C\/a\u003E, a drone-mounted RFID scanning system that takes inventory of cattle in a herd. The drone flies routes autonomously once programmed for a specific enclosure. Raising the Steaks team members include electrical engineering majors Jorge Juarez, Bryan Dahlqvist, Jesse Baker, and George Tzintzarov and computer engineering major Ashley Hrebik.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EECE students were part of\u0026nbsp;the interdisciplinary team, \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/expo.gatech.edu\/projects\/433\/\u0022\u003EPH571\u003C\/a\u003E, that took the top prize in the interdisciplinary category. The team aims to build a versatile hybrid-electric vehicle that excels in urban commuting, long-range travel, and high performance driving.
