We are extremely proud to announce that the Princeton team has won first place in the Design Competition of the 2008 IGVC. The Design Competition evaluated teams’ technical papers as well as an oral presentation and a robot inspection. We were selected as one of 6 finalists this morning, and gave a second oral presentation to a new set of judges in the afternoon. The winners were announced during an awards ceremony at 5pm. Congratulations to all of the Design Finalists: Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, University of Detroit Mercy, Missouri University of Science and Technology, California State University Northridge, and École de technologie supérieure.
