SeaPerch Challenge
The SeaPerch Challenge is a hands-on underwater robotics competition where K-12 students design, build, and operate their own remotely operated vehicle (ROV). Students participate in pool-based challenges including obstacle courses and mission courses simulating post-storm recovery efforts. Teams also participate in judges' interviews to showcase their engineering process. The event features three divisions: Elementary, Middle School, and High School. Top teams may advance to the International SeaPerch Challenge in College Park, Maryland on May 30-31. The application deadline has been extended to February 9.
