Student Competitions
Our students specialize in hands on design and development of electrical and computing systems. Many of our students participate in a competition team. These hands-on and application-oriented group activities help establish an engaging learning environment among students. Here are a few of the competition teams available for your consideration.
- Autonomous Helicopter Team
- The CSUN helicopter team competes in the international aerial robotics competition hosted by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI). This team uses a helicopter as their base platform to perform waypoint fly and target recognition. Click on the Autonomous Helicopter link above to learn more.
- IEEE Paper Contest
- The paper contest is hosted by the IEEE student chapter every semester. Through the contest, the students will not only compete on the innovative achievement of their projects or research, but more importantly, on their written and oral presentation skills. Click on the IEEE CSUN student chapter link here to learn more.
- The Windows ChallengE competition is a project of the Windows Embedded Academic Program, which equips students with complete embedded software and hardware toolkits that enable cutting-edge research and technology innovation. The free program offers access to source code, development tools and project-development support.
- Micromouse Competition
- The Micromouse is a competition for autonomous vehicles designed to get to the center of a micromouse maze in the shortest possible time. Team members need to work on the microcontroller, design the array of sensors for the detection of walls (sonar sensors, infra-red sensors, etc.), build the driver motor circuits, construct the chassis for the robot to run on, create the Printed Circuit Board Layout, and formulate a control algorithm to incorporate with the PWM capability of this robot.
