Michigan RoboSub is fundraising to support the continued design, construction, and testing of our fully autonomous robotic submarine as we prepare to compete in the international RoboSub competition in Irvine, California. Funds raised on Giving Blueday will be used to manufacture and upgrade submarine components, purchase essential electrical, mechanical, and software hardware, and offset travel and competition expenses for our student team. These contributions directly benefit our organization by enabling hands-on, project-based learning for students from diverse academic backgrounds, giving them real-world engineering experience. Donor support helps empower our members to develop technical skills, leadership, and teamwork while advancing autonomous underwater vehicle technology and representing the University of Michigan on a global stage.
About our Organization
Michigan Robotic Submarine (Michigan RoboSub) is an engineering student team that competes annually in the international Robosub competition in California. We design a fully autonomous robotic submarine with capabilities that include sonar mapping, object retrieval, torpedo targeting, and others. Throughout the year we work on designing, implementing, and testing new technologies for use on our submarine in competition.
