Watching the race
The "Pikachu" mobot made its way through eight of 14 gates, with a time of 2 minutes and 54 seconds. Designed by Carnegie Mellon alumnus John Palmisano, it won the judge's choice award this year.

The first prize in the undergraduate category went to the "GTG" team, whose mobot went through eight gates in 3 minutes, 7 seconds. Second prize went to "Low United" that finished four gates in 49 seconds. No undergraduate robot finished the entire slalom course.
