•Most in Region 1>6• DIVERSE GEOGRAPHICAL REGION
John Torous: Student RepresentativeLeonard Bond: Region Director
• Micromouse Competition (UCSD)• IEEE Boy Scout Merit Badge day (UCR)• Teaching The Community (UC Berkeley)• Entrepreneurial Workshops (Stanford)• First Lego League Mentoring (MSU)
Micromouse Competition• Autonomous robots compete
to:– Solve and run a maze in the
shortest time.
• Students learn about MCU’s sensors, programming, and team work.
• Student groups build their own micromouses subject to contest rules.
• Sectional, regional and national competitions
Region 6 Micromouse Competitions• Central Region: UC Santa Cruiz March 2009• Southwest Area: UC San Diego, April 2009
