High-Altitude Internet Balloon Design

Project: Human City aims to bridge the digital divide by providing internet access to remote and underserved areas. The goal of this project is to design a high-altitude hot air balloon capable of broadcasting internet signals while maintaining a relatively geo-fixed position to ensure consistent ground connection. The balloon must be able to withstand high-altitude atmospheric conditions, including low temperatures and high winds. The design should also consider energy efficiency, possibly incorporating solar panels or other renewable energy sources to power the broadcasting equipment. This project provides an opportunity for learners to apply their knowledge in aerodynamics, materials science, and telecommunications. Key objectives include: - Designing a balloon structure that can remain stable at high altitudes. - Ensuring the balloon can maintain a geo-fixed position. - Developing a reliable internet broadcasting system. - Incorporating sustainable energy solutions.
