The IGVC competition is centered around building the next generation of off-road, all-weather autonomous vehicles. The idea is to create a vehicle and tech stack that can navigate through an obstacle course to given GPS waypoints without human intervention. The map is not known beforehand, and while there are certain obstacles that are commonly used, theoretically anything can be placed onto the course. The competition is scored in three main areas. First is the design of the robot as presented in the TDP (a written report on the vehicle) that is given to industry experts for judging. Next, the team is scored based on their presentation of the robot, including a Q&A from the judges. Finally, the robot is put to the test by trying to navigate the fastest route on the AutoNav course. '''If''' multiple robots complete the course, the winner is the robot that completed it in the fastest time. Otherwise, the robot that navigates the farthest is the winner. In other words, speed is second to safety.

Our 2019 robot, Jessii

The IGVC competition is centered around building the next generation of off-road, all-weather autonomous vehicles. The idea is to create a vehicle and tech stack that can navigate through an obstacle course to given GPS waypoints without human intervention. The map is not known beforehand, and while there are certain obstacles that are commonly used, theoretically anything can be placed onto the course. The competition is scored in three main areas. First is the design of the robot as presented in the TDP (a written report on the vehicle) that is given to industry experts for judging. Next, the team is scored based on their presentation of the robot, including a Q&A from the judges. Finally, the robot is put to the test by trying to navigate the fastest route on the AutoNav course. If multiple robots complete the course, the winner is the robot that completed it in the fastest time. Otherwise, the robot that navigates the farthest is the winner. In other words, speed is second to safety.
