Re: Lots of robot competitions out there

I found this challenge while browsing the web. It uses the LEGO Mindstorms NXT, and is basically a line following challenge. Unfortuately, it is held from January through May, so it might interfere with FRC deadlines...

Mini Urban Challenge
[From their website]
Quote:
The Institute of Navigation’s (ION) Mini-Urban Challenge is an annual high school competition sponsored by The Institute of Navigation (ION) and the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) created to challenge high school students to design and operate a robotic unmanned car built from a LEGO® MINDSTORMS® kit that can accurately navigate through a LEGO® city.
