MathWorks FollowThePath Challenge
MathWorks, the makers of MATLAB and Simulink, aims to engage students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning at a young age to help prepare them for success at the university level and beyond. The MathWorks FollowThePath Challenge will introduce participants to Model-Based Design using Simulink. Participants will use complimentary software to design a line follower algorithm for a simulated drone.
This challenge provides an opportunity to simulate and learn path planning, image processing, and control systems for a drone line follower. The challenge is open to all student teams participating in REC Foundation’s Aerial Drone Competition or VEX VRC Robotics Competition and presents an opportunity for the top team to compete at VEX Worlds or an Aerial Drone Championship.
