The goal of this challenge is to use a quadrotor aircraft with downward facing camera, and possibly other sensors, to scan an area for a lost aircraft
"SoilScope"
IMAGINE:
Drylands form a significant portion of earth's surface, yet the surface processes affecting, and impacted by soil, are poorly understood due to undersampling. For the 2020 NSF Challenge, student teams will deploy and recover soil probes to measure properties that are of interest to ecologists.

The goal of the 2019 CPS Challenge is to use a quadrotor aircraft to scan an area for a lost aircraft and retrieve it
CPS Challenge 2019 - "No robot left behind!"
IMAGINE:
Your friend's quadrotor went down in a large field, and a storm is coming in. Looking for this lost drone needs a solution that could be repurposed to solve many other problems, like looking for a place to deploy a mosquito sensor.
BEST (Boosting Engineering, Science, and Technology) is a national 6-week robotics competition for middle and high school students.
BEST Robotics is a national nonprofit providing middle and high school students with a FREE STEM Education program and competition for career and workforce development. BEST is an acronym for Boosting Science, Engineering, Math, and Technology.

The CAT Vehicle Testbed is a full sized Ford Escape which is available for control via ROS messaging.
The CAT Vehicle Testbed is a full sized Ford Escape which is available for control via ROS messaging. This group documents how to install simulation software to interact with the simulated testbed, instructions for how to interpret simulation data, and the limitations and capabilities of the simulator and the testbed.
This repository contains artifacts related to the upcoming multi-institution student competition.
These challenges will provide engineering students the opportunity to validate their analytic studies through a real-world vehicle design and verification experience.
