Robonation

RoboNation is an online community that features detailed information and a discussion forum for the non-profit Association for Unmanned Vehicles Systems International (AUVSI) Foundation.

The AUVSI Foundation organizes a series of robotics competitions for university students since 1991. They have awarded $1.4 million in prize money since then.

The goal of these contests is to inspire students to follow a career, or at least develop a deeper interest, in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM).

There are many different robotics challenges and competitions held by the AUVSI Foundation:

• SeaPerch National Challenge
• International RoboBoat Competition
• Student Unmanned Air Systems Competition
• International RoboSub Competition
• Maritime RobotX Challenge
• International Aerial Robotics Competition
• Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition
