		       ROBOT JOUSTING CONTEST!

		      5/14/97, 2-3 pm Wednesday
		   1202 Engineering Classroom Bldg.


Students from Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
and Computer Science have been working all semester building small,
autonomous mobile robots for this competition. Each of the five robots
will traverse a 30 foot long track, hitting targets for points placed
alongside. The robot which racks up the most points in 100 seconds
will win! Each robot Jouster must perform this job without any human
intervention. The contest is held on study day, Wednesday, May 14th
from 2 to 3 pm in 1202 EGR. If more information is needed, contact the
instructors, Gregory C. Walsh, gwalsh@eng.umd.edu, and Julio
Rosenblatt, julio@umiacs.umd.edu.
