The VGSA Robotics Competition
Supported by Northrop Grumman
The Mission:
This VGSA Robotics Competition Supported by Northrop Grumman will give you a chance to build a robot of your own and compete with other engineer's robot designs. Kits are supplied to each team. Free food will be provided for the competitors.
Competitors will build and program robots from lego mindstorm kits that will have to complete in three challenges: one dealing with mechanical prowess, an obstacle track, and a search and rescue! Judging will be based on many factors (time, durability, design elegancy, incorporation of multiple sensors, etc.) and the judges will consist of a representative from Northrop Grumman, a Robotics expert, and a VGSA representative!
The top 3 teams take home their Robots and get added prizes! All teams will get Participation Prizes!
Space for this competition is limited to 12 teams of 4 Viterbi Engineers! Sign up now!
