We are making our final preparations for competition during this next week! Seven of us will set out on June 21st for competition in Long Beach, CA.
We will be celebrating all of the progress our team has made this semester on Friday, June 17, with our commissioning ceremony for our ROV, the SS&T Missouri! The event will be livestreamed on our Facebook and YouTube channels, and anyone is free to join us for the ceremony behind the Student Design and Experiential Learning Center (SDELC) at Missouri S&T. We ask that if you plan to attend in person, please RSVP to underwater@mst.edu with the subject “Commissioning Ceremony”.
Our ROV is responding to autonomous commands, which means the computing division will be busy writing those programs. We will also be redesigning the dynamic manipulator to better suit the environment and make it easier to do tasks. We can’t wait to see Long Beach in a week!
