Virtual RobotX (VRX) Competition 2022 

The Virtual RobotX (VRX) Competition is an international, university-level event designed to expose students to autonomous maritime technologies through a Gazebo-based simulation platform. Organised by RoboNation in collaboration with the U.S. Office of Naval Research (ONR), Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), and Open Robotics (OR), VRX provides a free, open-source environment where students can develop and test autonomous solutions for maritime vehicles. 

NTU’s team secured 3rd place in the VRX Competition 2022, finishing just 1 point behind the second-place team. Along with the third-place prize of USD $1,000, we were honoured with multiple accolades, including: 

  • Remarkable Video Submission Award 

  • Biggest Leap in Ranking (Phase 2 to Phase 3) 

  • Phenomenal Open-Source Contributor 

  • Fee Waiver for the 2023 RoboBoat Competition 

 

These accomplishments reflect our team's commitment to innovation and excellence in the field of autonomous maritime systems.
