Project Data

Had an idea about a big drone satellite, flying in the sky and waving around like a buoy does in the open sea. Designing the function and mechanics behind it was fun once I landed on a nice shape, and actually working on the animation was great! Makes it feel more real to me.
Thank you to my KartoffelBoyz for the feedback!

Alternative I've explored, but ultimately decided against it because it didn't fit my original vision.

When sending high-priority data, the long-range antennas extend for a secure and long-range connection.
