IGVC - The Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition on June 11-13, 2005 brought 37 teams from various universities and tech schools around the world to Traverse City, Michigan. The competition consisted of three parts: an autonomous challenge, where the robot navigates itself through an obstacle course using vision and other sensors, a navigational challenge, where the robot uses GPS to hit multiple way points in the shortest time while avoiding obstacles, and a design competition. BYU entered for their first time this year and took fifth in the autonomous challenge, the biggest of the three challenges. The experience was a great one for all those involved. If you would like to support BYU for next year's competition, please contact Dr. Lee or Dr. Archibald.
