Maslab 2006

Maslab is an autonomous robotics competition at MIT now in its sixth year. Students meet virtually every day during IAP (the month of January) building and programming their robot. Maslab is arguably the most advanced and challenging robotics competition on the planet, incorporating high-end equipment, and a challenging contest requiring the use of computer vision. Maslab is open to all MIT students, graduate students and undergraduates alike.

An article describing this year's contest appeared in the Summer 2006 issue of Robot Magazine. (preprint)
