Unmanned Systems Canada – Student Competition Phase 1 Winners

The mission for the competition is to address challenges commonly faced by the Oil and Gas, Mining and Agriculture industries. A judging panel, comprised of Canadian subject matter experts, has completed its independent review of the technical papers submitted by each team. Overall, the judges were impressed by the quality of the reports, the inclusion of new technologies into the systems and the way the solutions were presented. Unmanned Systems Canada is therefore pleased to announce the top three teams as follows:

UAV Design Paper Competition
1st place: Explorer – University of Toronto
2nd place: Blackbird – Carleton University
3rd place: VAMUdeS – Université de Sherbrooke

Awards for Phase 1 will be presented at the competition awards banquet in Southport, MB. Special thanks to Southport as our host and all our sponsors for making all of it possible. Sponsorship opportunities are still available – contact us today to become involved as we support and celebrate the best and brightest of the Canadian UVS sector.

Best of luck during Phase 2!
