SRS RoboMagellan
The outdoor robot contest SRS' RoboMagellan faces the problem of navigating outdoors using GPS and vision sensors to make their way around a course marked by orange traffic cones. This contest, created by the Seattle Robotics Society, has been a great success and we look forward to this years' cool robots. Pictures and video from previous events can be found in the Gallery.
