The future is autonomous robotics, and we aim to incubate our members to meet the challenges of tomorrow.\u00a0Ultimately, our vision is a premier robotics team at U-M that is a place where anyone regardless of their background can get involved in robotics and a catalyst for spinning off entrepreneurial and social ventures.<\/p>\n<p>In our first year, we have established a team, created a prototype vehicle, and hosted several demo events. We plan to continue the iterative development process to refine and optimize our vehicle&#8217;s autonomous behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Our prototype vehicle operates at speeds up to 5mph, has a sensor suite comprised of 3D cameras and 2D lidar, and runs on a Linux-ROS computer system. In 2018, we hope to scale our project to build a compact, federally-compliant, autonomous car capable of transporting two passengers at speeds up to 45mph.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-576 alignright\" style=\"font-size: 0.95em\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/studentvoices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2018\/03\/vehicle2.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>UMIGV is supported by Michigan Robotics in the College of Engineering, the Barger Leadership Institute Capstone program and other on-campus partners.<\/p>\n<p>By: The UMIGV Team, including BLI Fellows Adarash Mishra and Gregory Meyer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Founded in Fall 2016, the University of Michigan Intelligent Ground Vehicle (UMIGV) is an engineering design team building a fully autonomous vehicle for the Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition in 2018 at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan.
