Help us Win the Robotics Challenge!
Hello World!
We have been participating in a competition hosted by DHL - the delivery company.
Our first submission required us to propose the concept for a self-driving delivery car to help delivery experts with the arduous task of having to carry our boxes from Amazon and the ever increasing online shopping world.
DHL has now asked us to develop this prototype in 3 weeks and we need YOUR help to make it happen! All the materials needed to build the robot have been budgeted for and ready for purchase. Here is a link to our list of materials & budget.
Here is where we need your help!
Our team is composed of college students and recent grads and therefore $1000 could be difficult to put together within 2 weeks between the 5 of us, which is why we are reaching out to you to help us contribute to this project.
Any donation will help us purchase all the components for building our first full-scale prototype, and the more of our goal we reach, the better quality sensor we can purchase.
From this portion of the competition, DHL will choose 3 finalists to compete in the final live competition where our autonomous robot will be competing against the other autonomous robots in a test course in the DHL Innovation Facility in Troisdorf, Germany.
We appreciate any contribution pledged towards our cause and hope to represent Miami in Germany in these coming months.
Check out all our photos and we'd be happy to hear your feedback!
