Free high school robotics competition offers real-world engineering lessons
The Air Force Research Laboratory and the Institute of Navigation are hosting the Second Annual Mini-Urban Challenge on May 22 at Wright State University in Dayton. The competition invites high school students to design, build and program a car using LEGO® MINDSTORMS® sensors to navigate at the contest site through a 20-foot by 20-foot city made entirely of LEGOs® building sets. There is no cost for schools or students to participate because the sponsors provide all necessary materials, sensors and software. The competition provides high school students with real-world engineering lessons in problem solving, technical language and teamwork with a goal of getting more students excited about engineering. The top two teams from four regions will compete in a national competition on June 4 in Dayton. For more information and to register, click here . Direct any questions to Lieutenant Casey Miller at (937) 257-4775 or Casey@MiniUrbanChallenge.com.

Delphi E.L.I.T.E. Takes Gold in NC
At the end qualification rounds at the North Carolina Regional, Delphi E.L.I.T.E., Team 48, was ranked 17th of 44. The first seeded team, Team 1086, selected our team as well as Team 1902 to advance into the elimination rounds.

Our alliance would make it all the way to the finals where we met the alliance of teams 1519, 1772, and 1741. Final match 1-1 was close, but we were on the losing end with a score of 3-5. Final match 1-2 evened it up with a win by our alliance and a score of 8-6. That sent us into a third match where our alliance pulled away with a 9-6 score.

Congratulations to our Alliance, Team 1086 - Blue Cheese Robotics from Virginia and Team 1902 - Exploding Bacon from Florida.
