WAVELab Robotics and UWRT - IGVC 2011

The 19th annual Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition was held at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan. It's described as one of the largest and most prestigious competitions for custom autonomous vehicles in North America. The competition is run annually by the Associate for Unmanned Vehicle's International, with sponsors including the US Department of Defense, Lockheed Martin, and General Dynamics.

The Waterloo entry — named Indrik — placed second out of 56 teams from the United States, Canada, India, Japan and the United Arab Emirates in the vehicle design competition. Waterloo also finished 4th in the JAUS challenge, which requires successful implementation of an industrial calibre communications framework for autonomous vehicles.
