A Few Events Coming Up in the Next Few Weeks

With the semester winding down, our team seems to be on overdrive to make sure our rover is running flawlessly. Testing is currently taking place in the Space @ VT building in the hallway with many other students gathering around to see the rover in action.

Besides testing, Animus will be making a few appearences in the New River Valley area. If you are local and want to see Animus run over all terrain and pick up different objects, check out the list below.
