UBC ENGINEERING PHYSICS

TEAM CALGARY

    The Challenge

    During ENPH 253, a second year engineering course on prototyping and design, teams were challenged to develop a robot that would compete in the UBC Engineering Physics Robot Competition at the beginning of August.

     

    This year, teams had to emulate the popular ride-hailing company: Uber. Teams were responsible for designing, prototyping, and manufacturing completely autonomous vehicles that could pick up and drop off "passengers." 


    ​Provided with the necessary resources and equipment, Team Calgary set off to apply the skills and techniques they had learned over the summer, in hopes of successfully completing the challenge.

    Robots battle at UBC

    Each year, UBC engineering physics students battle it out for the best robot title. Rescue-bots, Hockey-bots, Doctor-bots, Build-bots, Police-Bots… they’ve done it all.
