Students' Project Helps Light up the Sky at Firefly Festival
RVCC Engineering students helped the public gain a better understanding of fireflies during Duke Farms' "Firefly Festival," held July 13-14. The students, Anthony Sibaja of Bridgewater, Alec Mulder of Bridgewater and Alec Zarzor of Scotch Plains, had created firefly simulators out of bamboo sticks for the public to use during the festival.
Working as part of RVCC's Authentic Engineering Experience, the three-student team had been engaged by Duke Farms Foundation to develop and deliver firefly simulators that were "green" and sustainable, using natural materials and no batteries.
