We are proud to announce that we’ve broken the PAVE recruiting record with an all time high of over 50 new members. Although the increase coincides with the expanded enrollment of B.S.E. students at Princeton, several of our new members are Sophomores and Juniors, and many are from disciplines outside the engineering school.

PAVE was at the 2009 NYC FIRST Regional Competition from March 7 to March 8, 2009. This is the second year that we have been invited to exhibit at the competition’s career expo. This gave us a chance to show Prospect 12 and our build-in-progress robot for the 2009 IGVC to hundreds of middle- and high-school students from the greater New York City area.

This month, PAVE will be featured at several events around New Jersey. Both events are open to the pubic with no charge for admission.

On November 13th, we will be at the fourth annual UsabilityNJ event for World Usability Day New Jersey 2008. The event is hosted at Rutgers, CAIP Center, CoRE building, Busch campus, Piscataway, NJ and runs from 4-9PM. The theme this year will be ‘Usability in Transportation’, and Prospect Twelve will be on display alongside several electric vehicles and Segways. Although we are not scheduled to present, PAVE will have a table at the event where we will be distributing information and showing videos of Prospect Twelve in action. For more information about the event or to obtain directions, please visit the UsabilityNJ website here.

On November 20th, PAVE will be presenting at the joint meeting of the Princeton chapters of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers – Computer Society (IEEE-CS) at Sarnoff Corporation in Princeton. We will be giving a talk about our participation in the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge and the 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge, as well as on our current and future research. A PDF with more details of the event is available here. We will also have Prospect Twelve with us at this event.

PAVE is excited to be a part of both of these events and we look forward to seeing you there!
