Experience + assessment

What they will learn

  • Engineer: Design mechanisms and a reliable platform for the selected league.
  • Program: Build algorithms in Python or C++ and test them in simulation or on the robot.
  • See: Explore OpenCV, image processing and YOLO where the league calls for machine vision.
  • Decide: Combine perception, autonomous strategy and feedback control.
  • Prove: Measure reliability, keep an engineering record and defend the design as a team.

Put their skills to work

Engineer a complete autonomous system.

  • Autonomous rescue: find a target, choose a route.
  • A documented engineering portfolio for future applications.
