RoboRacing is a competitive robotics team geared towards autonomous racing of small scale automotive platforms. The team started in 2013, and is presently focused on the MicroMouse competition. Previously, the team has built robots to compete in the IARRC competition, as well as the Sparkfun AVC competition.

Micromouse puts its members at the forefront of autonomous robotics through involvement in robot design, PCB layout and fabrication, and embedded programming. Each competition has proven to be a great learning opportunity for everything from custom circuit design and motor control to advanced search and path-planning algorithms that could be applied to diverse engineering applications.
