Student Groups – Robotics

Do you secretly (or not-so-secretly) wish that you were Iron Man? Did you shed a single tear when WALL-E and EVE held hands? If so, the University of Waterloo Robotics Team is for you! We compete internationally with a variety of projects capable of everything from autonomous outdoor navigation to Moon exploration.

First year members are invited to participate in our Mini-sumo Competition. Teams of 4 will work together to build a small robot capable of detecting other robots and pushing them out of a ring. No prior experience is required – we’ll give you everything you need to get started with basic electronics, embedded software and mechanical design.

Our lab is located on the second floor of the E5 Student Design Center in E5-2003. Keep your eyes open for posters advertising our recruitment meeting. You can check out our website for more information (robotics.uwaterloo.ca), or email us at robotics@engmail.uwaterloo.ca
