- The MAVRIC team utilizes the University Rover Challenge to develop and test our engineering skills. The team’s primary objective is to compete effectively at the URC in Utah, held each spring in June. This semester, MAVRIC must complete and submit the URC system acceptance review. This is our primary document and accompanying video that will determine if we compete in Utah. To be prepared for the SAR, we will update our autonomous system and the shoulder joint of our rover’s arm.
- Submit the System Acceptance Review to the URC judges to qualify for the competition. This required a five-minute video and a six-page report.
- Competed at URC and placed 11th.
