IEEE Robotics and Automation Society
Who we are:
The IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) is an undergraduate robotics student organization striving to serve a diverse community of students. No matter the experience level, year, or major, we welcome and encourage all students interested in robotics to join.
What we do:
RAS has competitive and non-competitive committees for students to participate in.
Our competitive committees include:
- Robotathon: A competition hosted by RAS that helps students learn the basics of robotics by teaching them how to use different sensors and code in C++.
- RoboMaster: Came in 4th place nationally at the 2022 competition! A video game-style competition where teams must defend their base and fire small balls at their opponents.
- Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition (IGVC): An autonomous vehicle designed to overcome obstacles and reach the end of its course.
- VEX U: Won Design Award in VEX U World Championship 2023! Competitions consist of novel sports-like robot challenges each year.
Our non-competitive committees are:
- Demobots: Students are encouraged to use their creativity to create robots for demos and outreach. Our most known demobot is Couchbot!
- Corporate/Fundraising: An opportunity for students to meet company representatives, plan events for companies to meet our members, and coordinate fundraising events.
