Dr.Yukinori Matsumoto with Sanyo, hosted by Dr. Reinhard Radermacher from the Mechanical Engineering Department visited the construction site. Sanyo is a title sponsor of the team. They were extremely generous and donated all of the solar panels that will power the house.

We provided a comprehensive tour of the house and explained all of the components and technology. He was very interested in our progress and encouraged us to continue the hard work.
