S.O.N.I.A was founded in 1999 and its members have designed a total of 9 autonomous submarines since. The club is made up of students from engineering programs in mechanics, electrical, automated production and software.
Istanbul Technical University
ITU AUV TEAM
Istanbul, Sarıyer, Turkiyë
ITU AUV Team is an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle team established in 2018 within Istanbul Technical University.The ITU AUV Team, which has achieved great success in competitions it has participated in Turkey and abroad, has set its main goal as representing our country and our university in the best way possible in various AUV competitions to be held in Singapore, Italy and the United States.
McGill University
McGill Robotics
Montreal, Quebec, Canada
McGill Robotics Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) team, is made up of a dedicated team of engineering students collaborating to bring Douglas to life, our AUV representing McGill at this year’s RoboSub competition. Spanning three different subdivisions of Mechanical, Electrical, and Software, over 70 students work together to develop and design Douglas. Their commitment and excellence truly showcase the best of McGill University’s student talent.
Olympic College
Olympic College Engineering Club
Bremerton, Washington, USA
The Olympic College Engineering Club (OCEC) is a student-led, hands-on engineering team focused on real-world problem solving through collaborative design and build projects. OCEC brings together Olympic College students with Washington State University Bremerton engineering students, creating a small but scrappy, cross-institutional team. Our RoboSub program emphasizes systems integration, documentation, and learning by doing, because good engineering is built, tested, broken, and improved.
San Diego State University
SDSU Mechatronics
San Diego, California, USA
SDSU Mechatronics is a student-run team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of autonomous maritime robotics. Since 2011, we have competed in RoboSub by designing and building AUVs from the ground up. Our team operates without external professional aid, giving students total ownership over the engineering lifecycle. We are a multidisciplinary collective from San Diego State University focused on solving the unique challenges of underwater autonomy.
Texas A&M University
WIRED AUV
College Station, Texas, USA
WIRED AUV is part of the Women In Robotics, Engineering, and Development (WIRED) student organization at Texas A&M University. Established in 2015, our purpose is to build an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for the annual RoboSub Competition. WIRED AUV is a learning team that focuses on recruiting underrepresented freshmen and sophomores and cultivating a supportive environment to gain hands-on experience.
The Ohio State University
Ohio State Underwater Robotics Team
Columbus, Ohio, USA
The Underwater Robotics Team at Ohio State is an interdisciplinary student project team that specializes in the design, construction, and operation of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). Our mission is to provide members the opportunity to apply hands-on engineering and business principles and to serve the community through a STEM education outreach program.
Troy High School NJROTC
TROY SPEAR
Fullerton, California, USA
SPEAR is a high school team from Troy High School in Fullerton, CA. SPEAR is unique because all members must also be enrolled in the Naval JROTC (NJROTC) program. Our program was initiated in 2019 and this will be our fourth year competing in person.
University of British Columbia Okanagan
UBC Okanagan Marine Robotics
Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada
UBC Okanagan Marine Robotics (UBC OKMR) is a student-led engineering team at UBC Okanagan focused on designing and developing advanced Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for competition and real-world marine applications. Our AUV division leads systems engineering, perception, controls, and underwater robotics research while fostering hands-on learning. Beyond competition, we run STEM outreach, high-school mentorship, and community engagement programs to inspire future engineers and expand access to marine robotics education.
Université de Sherbrooke
Nautilus
Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada
Website | Facebook | Instagram
We are a multidisciplinary team of eight robotics and mechanical engineering students from the University of Sherbrooke, united under the name NAUTILUS.
Dynamic and ambitious, we are driven to push the boundaries of technological innovation in a practical and competitive setting, aiming to showcase our university’s student talent and expertise.
