UA Students Win Regional Robotics Competition
The University of Alabama Robotics team became the first UA robotics team in school history to win the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers SoutheastCon Hardware Competition. Seven electrical and computer engineering students represented UA at the 2018 regional conference held recently in Tampa, Florida. The UA team competed against 50 teams from across the southeast region. "We were thrilled to hear 'The University of Alabama' when the winner was announced," said Dr. Kenneth Ricks, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and robotics team faculty adviser. "These students worked very hard and represented UA in a first-class manner. I was very happy they were able to win the championship." Over the past eight years the team from UA has consistently been in the top 10 of this competition. This year's results mark the first time UA has won the entire competition. "The UA team is by far the most consistent team year in and year out, but until we got over the hump it doesn't mean much," Ricks said. "Finally, in 2018 the team was able to break through and win it for the very first time to show the southeast region that UA has an outstanding program and the College of Engineering is capable of winning it all and sustaining that success over a long period of time." The goal of the competition is for each team to build an autonomous robot that is capable of solving a series of tasks. This year's competition was pirate themed. The robots had to navigate their way through a pirate ship while completing tasks like turning a wheel to raise a pirate flag, going down a plank while avoiding water, and loading a treasure chest on the robot and returning it back to the ship. The competition was set up into three rounds with the teams having to complete the tasks in under five minutes. Every team competed in the first two rounds and then the top four teams at the end of round two competed in a final round to decide the winner. The UA team completed each round in under 46 seconds. "I felt an amazing sense of relief and pride when we were announced the winners. Leading up to and at the conference we really pushed ourselves and our robot to the limit," said Tommy Gonsewski, a senior from Eufaula, Alabama. "We competed with the mentality of representing ourselves, Dr. Ricks, and the University in the very best way possible. I really feel lucky to have been a part of this team." The six electrical and computer engineering students that competed along with Gonsewski are: Will Bounds, senior from Delmar, Maryland. Patrick Dunleavy, junior from Western Springs, Illinois. Nick Rodriguez, senior from Atlanta. Hunter Foster, senior from Birmingham. Nick Hohs, senior from Kenosha, Wisconsin. Daniel Zahn, senior from Raleigh, North Carolina.

UA Astrobotics Team Takes First Place in NASA Competition for Fourth Year in a Row
Students at The University of Alabama who competed in a NASA robotics contest came away with the top prize again, making it four straight years for the team from UA to win. Alabama Astrobotics took the top prize at the NASA Robotic Mining Competition, besting student teams from more than 50 other institutions in the challenge to build a robot capable of navigating and excavating simulated Martian soil, or regolith. Made up of about 65 students from across eight disciplines including engineering and computer science, Alabama Astrobotics is the only team to win more than once in the nine-year history of the NASA contest, placing first in 2012, 2015, 2016, 2017 and, now, 2018. "Our team is just like a football team, you have seniors who graduate at the end and you have new people coming in at the beginning, so every year it's a completely different team," said team lead and electrical engineering student Max Eastepp. "For us to be successful this year says a lot for this team and says a lot for how we adapt to new challenges each year." Eastepp, a native of New Orleans, Louisiana, said teamwork is critical as students worked from July through the contest this month to design the robot and tackle the new problem NASA presented this year. Contest organizers revised the rules and rubrics this year to reflect the discovery that water ice is prevalent throughout the Red Planet. The challenge is to mine the precious icy regolith, simulated with gravel in the contest, since water ice will provide oxygen, water and fuel for future off-world colonists. What that meant for the contest, though, is no points were awarded to teams for digging the top foot of regolith. Teams earned points for collecting the gravel 12 inches below the surface. The robot built by the UA students mined the most gravel of any team in the contest. UA's robot mined more of the gravel than any other team in the contest, with many teams failing to mine any gravel. Also, Alabama Astrobotics was the only team with a robot that competed entirely autonomously, meaning the robot used computer programming to guide itself, mine and deposit the soil and gravel without any directions from students during the contest. The team placed first in five out of nine categories that included mining, autonomy, systems engineering paper, efficient use of communications power and outreach reports. In all, the students won $11,000 for use on next year's robot. Dr. Kenneth Ricks, team adviser and associate professor of electrical and computer engineering, said the team's consistent success comes from a culture of sticking to a plan - meeting deadlines, testing thoroughly before competition and paying attention to detail. "We know what needs to be done and when it needs to be done," he said. "If our students buy into that process, they know they will have opportunities to be successful." The team received funding from the Alabama Space Grant Consortium, NASA, Dynetics, Fitz-Thors Engineering, Crank N Chrome and the University.
