OT: More Proof M is the Leader & Best
At least our engineering students are. After a successful summer by the Solar Car Team and the Formula SAE Team, the group of UofM engineering students won an international competition and $750,000 grant to create robots that assist soldiers in the field in recon work.

These guys make me proud to be a Michigan Engineer.
November 17th, 2010 at 10:36 PM ^
The DoD even thinks we are Leaders and Best.
November 17th, 2010 at 9:52 PM ^
... Can we customize them with dreads?
November 17th, 2010 at 10:32 PM ^
Shoelace robots?
UM - 1
Terrorism - 0

That raises an interesting question . . .
Who would win in a race? Denard (powered by dilithium) or a Michigan-engineered robot (also powered by dilithium)?
November 17th, 2010 at 9:52 PM ^
Excellent! (but is this off topic?)
November 17th, 2010 at 10:33 PM ^
Per MGoBoard FAQ:
OFFTOPIC
- Pro sports of any variety
- Everything else

November 17th, 2010 at 10:57 PM ^
Yes, this.
November 17th, 2010 at 11:51 PM ^
Good call... thanks for pointing that out... I feel foolish...

My apologies...

Half of a very interesting thread just got taken up by a pointless debate as to whether it is OT
November 17th, 2010 at 9:57 PM ^
But anything involving Michigan being the sheeeet is on topic (to me anyway).
November 17th, 2010 at 10:00 PM ^
Great to hear. Per the FAQ, anything UM is always on-topic.
November 17th, 2010 at 11:22 PM ^
Run and tell THAT! Homeboy!
