The MSRAL proposal to compete in the NIST/IEEE 2011 Mobile Microrobotics Challenge has been accepted!
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is hosting a mobile microrobotics competition during the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) meeting to be held May 9-13, 2011, in Shanghai, China. Please see the competition website for more information: http://www.nist.gov/pml/semiconductor/mmc/
The next step in qualifying for the competition is to submit a video demonstration of one of our microrobots traversing a distance of 2 mm, along with a demonstration that the microrobot meets the competition's dimensional requirements of having no dimension bigger than 600 um.
