Online
The 23rd RoboSub Competition was held online, due to the in-person event being cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. In lieu of vehicle performance, teams were evaluated on a technical design report, video presentation and website. With 33 teams representing Brazil, Canada, Egypt, India, México, Norway, Poland, Singapore and the United States and territories.
While we didn’t have the opportunity to meet in person this year, we stayed engaged and shifted efforts online to highlight and reward teams’ incredible work. We ended the summer with a Virtual Awards Party to announce prizes and gear up for 2021. Congratulations RoboSub 2020 teams!
