reader response draft 2

  Reader response Zenmuse X7 is a camera that is made especially for filmmaking and is mainly mounted on the DJI Inspire 2 drone. According to DJI (n.d.), the main features of the Zenmuse X7 are the Super 35 camera with an integrated gimbal, A 24-megapixel CMOS sensor, four prime lenses and the Apple ProRes RAW. Filmmakers are now able to film up to 6k resolutions and with great stability. In the article “No Escape” (Holben, 2019), the Zenmuse X7 was praised when it was used to film the police drama 21 bridges. The article mentioned that the filmmakers used the DJI Inspire 2 with the Zenmuse X7 because of it being compact and its ability to film in 4k resolution. The filmmakers also made use of the functionality of the gimbal and detached it from the drone as it is small, stabilized, and can be handheld when chasing the actors during filming. The Zenmuse X5S may be a cheaper alternative but with the enhanced camera, four interchangeable lenses and the Apple ProRes RAW from the Zenm...

Initial Research pathway

  The team was engaged in drones back when we were doing our Final Year Project in our polytechnic. The team did a general search of drones and decided on using the sensor of the drone as our area of focus. The team then did a google search on drone sensors and DJI zenmuse x7 came up as one of the best. We then used CHATGPT to get an overview of DJI zenmuse x7, which shows the functions and features. We also used google scholar which provided articles and used the information to synthesize for our summary.

Self-introduction email

  Subject: self-introduction   Dear Prof Brad,   I am writing this email to introduce myself to you and I hope that you can get to know me better. My name is Quinian Foo, and I am a year 1 mechanical engineering student studying in Singapore Institute of Technology. I have a diploma in mechatronics, and I have a passion for engineering. Since I was young, I have always been a hands-on person. Fixing things and thinking outside of the box to seek out creative solutions to the problems I faced was enjoyable for me. What makes me unique is that I constantly think of ways to improve life through engineering. I took up design and technology as a subject during my O levels and proceeded to study mechatronics in Temasek Polytechnic. I excelled in engineering design and interned at Singapore Technologies Aerospace where I continued to apply my AutoCAD skills to work. I plan to specialize in design during my third year in university to refine my AutoCAD skills. Using AutoCAD durin...
