This project focused on developing a compact UAV for transporting important biological and medical samples between hospitals and laboratories. The concept addressed situations in which conventional ground transportation could be slow or inefficient, particularly when samples needed to reach laboratories within a limited period of time. The UAV was therefore designed around the requirements of short-range, reliable, and rapid transportation. I participated in the engineering development of the platform from the design stage toward the construction of a functional system. The compact configuration was selected to make the vehicle practical for operation around hospitals and other urban facilities. Payload capacity, aircraft weight, flight endurance, stability, and safety were important considerations during the design process. The internal payload area had to accommodate transported samples while keeping them protected during flight.

The project required continuous problem-solving across mechanical design, electronics, propulsion, flight performance, and practical operational requirements. It was developed within a broader engineering effort focused on using unmanned systems to solve real transportation and emergency-response problems. This project gave me practical experience taking a UAV concept beyond theoretical design and toward a system intended for a real-world application.
