Midwestern Robotics Design Competition is an annual robotics competition that occurs at the end of winter quarter every year. The competition is held at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and we get to submit and send a number of teams to compete! Last year was our first year and we managed to send one team that ended up winning the Most Creative Design Award (some hardware failures caused it to break after a few rounds)
The website for MRDC rules can be found here: http://mrdc.ec.illinois.edu/
We will most likely start preparing for the event at the end of fall quarter or at the start of winter quarter. Please be able to commit to a weekly meeting time to both design and build the robot.
