Congratulations to the 13 teams from QLD and NSW that were able to compete on the 15th July at DRC 2022, it was fantastic to see so many teams again and interstate travellers. We had some exciting races, a wonderful presentation by Dr Stephen Hausler from the QUT Centre for Robotics on “Autonomous Navigation – from Pixels to Pose” and another successful stream to an international audience. This year saw 11 university teams and 2 high school teams battle it out for the prizes and we hope to see even more in the future.
