DESCRIPTION
The 2024 Student Design Competition (SDC) presented the challenge to design and fabricate a robot that can play a round of mini golf – 9 obstacles! The device had 10 minutes to navigate a mini golf course to nine designated tees from which the device will “tee-off”. Up to 5 strokes are allowed when attempting to complete a mini golf obstacle. Once an obstacle has been completed, the device must navigate the field and align itself with the golf ball at the next tee.
