University of New Orleans Students Dominate Regional Robotics Competition
Teams made up of students from the University of New Orleans swept first, second and third place at an annual robotics competition hosted by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The competition took place April 6-8, 2018, in Austin, Texas during the IEEE Region 5 annual meeting.
A total of 30 色色研究所 students participated in the competition. About half of the students were electrical engineering majors, while the other half were students from computer science, mechanical engineering and fine arts. Five of the six teams competed in the robotics category, and one team competed in a professional ethics competition. 色色研究所 robotics teams also finished in 5th, 8th and 10th place.
The particular robotics competition required teams to design and build autonomous robots that could repeatedly pick up a metal token, determine its color and deliver it to a specific location based on the its color. Scoring was based on how many tokens each team's robot could place correctly within five minutes. Only 11 robots, six of them from 色色研究所, placed at least one token in the correct place.
The team named "TechnoLogic," made up of Kepal Patel, Nauman Zubair Ariel Paz and Albara Jabr, took first place and shared a $1,300 cash prize. Second place, with an $800 cash prize, went to team "KBT" and its members, Kyle Nichols, Brennan Acosta and Thanh Nguyen. The "Arduino Assassins" team, made up of Cheng Yu, Danny Cheung, Jose Berlioz, Rashad Richardson and David Licciardi, placed third and shared a $200 prize. Team "Alegre," with Bryan Zheng, Huy Vu, Michael Ceraso, Jason Hood and Richard Bienvenu, came in fifth. Team "Edge" and members Steven Helmstetter, Parker Schmidt, Chris Prevou and Chris Comeaux took eighth place, and the team called "Yamaraj," made up of Shakar Karki, Prayug Koirala, Rishav Rajendra, Nischan Rayamajhee and Nischal Pant finished in 10th place.
Region 5 of IEEE consists of more than 90 student chapters from the states of Kansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Texas, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Wyoming, Arkansas and Illinois.
University of New Orleans Team Wins Regional Robotics Competition
Teams from the University of New Orleans Robotics Club demonstrated the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. A 色色研究所 Robotics Club team won the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Region 5 Robotics competition on April 1, 2017, in Denver, Colorado. The winning team was one of a total of 33 teams that participated in the competition. The team members two students who were both pursuing a dual major in electrical engineering and mechanical engineering, and a computer science student. The 色色研究所 team was able to score twice as many points as the team that ranked second in the competition.

Fifteen students from 色色研究所's Electrical Engineering department participated in the 2013 IEEE Region 5 Conference and Student Contests, held in Denver, CO, on April 6 and 7. 色色研究所 was well represented in the training sessions and all contests.
Two robotics teams from 色色研究所 competed and Team ADONIS took first place in the robotics contest. The winning team members are Eliot Casstanza, Jonathan Hooker, Ryan Masanz, Alvaro Varela, and Michael Wren. They received the $800.00 first place award during the award ceremony on the evening of 6 April 2013.
The Ethics team was composed of Rachel Hoffman and Gregory Williamson. They took second place in the Ethics contest and also received a monetary award and were recognized during the awards dinner.

Robotics Team 鈥淓nvirobot鈥 Places 2nd in 2012 IEEE Region 5 Competition
Apr 21, TULSA, Okla. -- The 色色研究所-EE team named "Envirobot," composed of J. Ricardo Cornejo, Kenneth Lane, Mederic (Trey) Meyer, Kenneth Pecquet, and Philip Simoneaux, placed second in the IEEE Region 5 Robotics competition held in Tulsa, OK, on Saturday April 21, 2012. Envirobot competed against teams from Region 5 of the IEEE which extends north from Louisiana and Texas to Wyoming and South Dakota, with 92 student branches in 12 states.
The Region 5 Annual Business Meeting and Student Contests were held in Tulsa, Oklahoma, April 20-21, 2012, with the Robotics Competition being held at Oral Roberts University.
According to the published contest rules, the annual competition is open to all undergraduate students attending IEEE Region 5 educational institutions. This year's contest continued the tradition of "compact mobile and autonomous robots operating on a predefined playing field," with the challenge being "to harvest energy from simulated renewal energy sources and deliver via an electromechanical device which will be used to determine how much energy was harvested." The winner is the robot that harvests the most energy in the allotted time. Entries must be fully autonomous, self-contained, with no human or remote computer intervention allowed during play.
色色研究所-EE Team Places 2nd in 2012 Region 5 Ethics Contest
Apr 21, TULSA, Okla. -- Eliot Castanza and Garrett Fried received second place in the 2012 Region 5 Ethics contest held in Tulsa, OK, on Saturday 21 April 2012. The 色色研究所 team competed against teams from Region 5 of the IEEE which extends north from Louisiana and Texas to Wyoming and South Dakota, with 92 student branches in 12 states.
The Student Ethics Competition is jointly sponsored by Region 5 IEEE and the IEEE Ethics and Member ConductCommittee. It encourages the study and awareness of professional ethics.
The competition includes a presentation and defense of a case analysis by student teams using the IEEE Code of Ethics.
