The 2010
UC Robotics Team
has again entered the Intelligent Ground
Vehicle Competition
for the 18th year.
Their project is to convert a Motorized Scooter into a
computer controlled device that would permit senior citizens
or people with disabilities to be transported around
campus. One variation would even permit someone without arm
control to use muscle or mind control.
They have
asked a few engineering organizations for a small amount
of funding to get a motor, a gearbox, a small laptop
computer and a mind control sensor. RESC has been one
of the organizations that has been asked.
