For this project, we were assigned to find a solution to any world problem using biotech. So Solution we came up with was a fire extinguishing 40mm grenade that can be launched from a 40mm grenade launcher and then uses the CAFS system to create and expel fire extinguishing foam.

Concepts
CAFS System: Short for Compressed Air Foam System. A CAFS system mixes water with foam concentrate and aerates it to create foam which improves water's ability to fight fires.
Fire Diamond: An illustration used to illustrate the 3 elements that fire needs which is heat, fuel, and oxygen.
40mm grenades: Most 40mm grenades can be fired out of all 40mm grenade launchers. A lot of grenades have a variable length but can be fired from 40mm launchers nonetheless.

Reflection
What I feel that I did well was that I did what I was told to do. If I was told to do something by someone else, I usually did it without much hesitation. What I also did well was I did work well with my teammates. It was fun working with them and having a bit of talk on the side. What I could have done better was I could have been on task more often. I was often off task and only did things if I was told to do it by someone else. Another thing I could have worked on were my presentation skills. I didn't feel confident and looked at the screen often to remind myself what I had to say.
