ROBOBOAT 2024 RESULTS! 🚤 🔥 The 2024 International RoboBoat Competition took place in Sarasota, Florida from February 4-11. Eighteen teams from around the globe gathered to compete with their autonomous surface vehicles. Fourteen of Iceberg ASV’s members were in attendance to compete with the autonomous surface vessel — Sonny's Dream.  The results are in:   9th Place Overall 🌊  4th Place Design Documentation ✍  4th Place Presentation 💡  5th Place Website 💻 Overall, the team worked amazingly together throughout the entire week by maintaining communication and good spirits. We have learned so much since last year's competition, and we are so proud of how far we have come. As undergraduate students, it is rare to have the opportunity to collaboratively design and build a complete team and system from scratch. Building an autonomous boat has developed our technical skills and project management skills in an interdisciplinary setting. This project has given the whole team a new outlook on our coursework as team members have been able to apply concepts learned in class to a real-world challenge. Iceberg ASV intends to grow its team and scope in 2025 - from a complete re-design of the ASV to recruitment, the team has big plans for the year ahead! Keep an eye out for an exciting new announcement coming up soon! 

Introducing: Sonny's Dream! Our latest ASV we will be competing with at RoboBoat 2024 🌊 One week until we leave for RoboBoat 2024 and we couldn't be more excited! The team has been hard at work to be competition ready. Now all there's left to do is pack our bags and head to Florida! ☀️
