Building a Remote Controlled Boat

As part of being a team lead in the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle in SUTD, I was tasked with doing an orientation for our project for the new incoming juniors who would be joining the the Robotics Club in SUTD, SOAR. While most teams and projects do a talk through of their projects, I did not want this project to just become another academic project, but one that incites fun and excitement, as something to remember from their University.

As such, I decided to build a remote controlled boat, even though I have never built one before. Inspired by youtube videos, I decided to develop my own custom remote controlled boat.

Caption photos easily. On the left, a road goes through a tunnel. Middle, leaves artistically fall in a hipster photoshoot. Right, in another hipster photoshoot, a lumberjack grasps a handful of pine needles.

This image can also have a caption. It's like magic.

You can also put regular text between your rows of images, even citations (missing reference). Say you wanted to write a bit about your project before you posted the rest of the images. You describe how you toiled, sweated, bled for your project, and then… you reveal its glory in the next row of images.

You can also have artistically styled 2/3 + 1/3 images, like these.

The code is simple. Just wrap your images with <div class="col-sm"> and place them inside <div class="row"> (read more about the Bootstrap Grid system). To make images responsive, add img-fluid class to each; for rounded corners and shadows use rounded and z-depth-1 classes. Here’s the code for the last row of images above:

<div class="row justify-content-sm-center">
  <div class="col-sm-8 mt-3 mt-md-0">
    {% include figure.liquid path="assets/img/6.jpg" title="example image" class="img-fluid rounded z-depth-1" %}
  </div>
  <div class="col-sm-4 mt-3 mt-md-0">
    {% include figure.liquid path="assets/img/11.jpg" title="example image" class="img-fluid rounded z-depth-1" %}
  </div>
</div>
