Camosun engineering students invent next generation strobe light at a fraction of commercial cost

When Camosun Physics instructor Ed Nelson put out an extracurricular challenge to his class, he never imagined just how enthusiastically and successfully a group of his students would respond. He asked: “is there anyone who can build a new strobe light to replace the older model in the lab?” Three of his students – Rylen Enger, Miles Krakowec Tickner, and Joseph Letang – raised their hands and over the course of a full year, on their own initiative, designed an entirely new strobe light that matches, and in several respects improves upon, commercially available models at a fraction of the cost.
