Fed up with having to hold paper up to a window in order to trace something, Angus was inspired to create Tracer's Friend, an invention ideal for tracing no matter where you are!

The Portable Tracer's Friend

I came up with Tracer's Friend because I wanted a tracing solution that was convenient and easily portabl. Despite a few teething problems, getting the product to work efficiently so that the light diffuses and distributes evenly was really rewarding.
I intend to study at Otago Univeristy and complete a computer programming/engineering degree so that I can one day work as a programmer for Maxis.
When I'm not working on my Bright Sparks project I like to read, swim and play soccer as well as collect Naruto cards and play on my Xbox.
