The team will continue to participate in the latest edition of AUVSI SUAS, having first done so in 2009. The competition, held annually in Maryland, USA, includes development of an aerial system with imaging, target identification and payload drop capabilities.

We are thrilled to be participating in Phase 2 of the DARPA Triage Challenge (DTC) after securing 2nd place in Phase 1. The competition, organized by the United States Department of Defense, aims to drive breakthrough innovations in identifying “signatures” of injury to enable medical responders to perform scalable, timely, and accurate triage.

The team also aims to participate in the SAE AeroConnect Challenge, a student engineering design competition in the SAE Emerging Technology Series, which provides an opportunity for students to think critically about current and future emerging technologies in the mobility engineering industry. Each program within the SAE Emerging Technology Series challenges universities to create a team of multi-disciplinary engineers to collaborate, design, present, and defend conceptual designs to industry professionals.
