Impressive work, especially on such a budget and tight timeframe!

Can you comment on the presence of turbulence around the drone (which creates noise in the ultrasound spectrum) and the reflectivity of a mosquito (relative to the artifact that you used in the proof of concept). Your approach is sound for 3D scanning in general but I don't see how the SNR numbers add up for the purpose of chasing mosquitoes with a drone.

I have experience in 3D object tracking using ultrasound if you'd like to chat (LinkedIn or email).

Thank you for the thoughtful answer @Alene. There is no right way to think about this – the buyer of the certificate can use any heuristic they choose, but I wanted to get your thoughts in the event one reached out while looking to put a dollar value on a successful outcome. 11% @$500 is a per-lawsuit value of $4500, which sounds like an incredible deal (but maybe I'm thinking about this wrong?).

I believe in the mission and think the strategy is effective. My goal as a grantor is to estimate how much the grant would be worth if the project it funds is successful. It would help to understand what this grant does that the current LIC funding doesn't – say you win one of the new or existing cases, and someone wishes to buy the grant as a result, how much of the success would be attributed to this grant specifically?

The proposal changed from winning a lawsuit to publicizing the Court decision – can you update the definition of success (i.e what does meeting other NGOs achieves)? Suppose you get airtime on a major platform, that's a successful outcome well beyond the $500 valuation.
