Annual Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) State-Wide Competition

Dear Students, Friends, and Colleagues,

The Engineering Science and Physics department is hosting a mini Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) state-wide competition on Friday, May 3, 2019 at MCC PAC field house.

Competing students have designed and built drones to transport a rescue kit through a series of obstacles and return to the starting point. The UAV must be able to maneuver around and through obstacles, change altitude and carry/deposit a payload to the proper drop zone, then navigate back to the starting zone. It is a simulation of a rescue delivery where human navigation is difficult or dangerous.

Please see the attached pdf for the rules and regulations.

Here is the tentative schedule:

9:00 am - 10:00 am Team Check In and Set Up

10:00 am - 11:30 am Poster Session

11:30 am - Noon Lunch/test run

12:00 pm - 2:00pm UAV competition

2:00 pm - 2:30 pm Awards ceremony

***it all depends on the number of non-MCC participants

Cheers
