What is iRobotics?

iRobotics is a Registered Student Organization at the University of Illinois and the largest and most active robotics community on campus. The group serves as an outlet for all students interested in getting involved with robotics in the Champaign-Urbana area.

Club Description

“iRobotics is a competition-oriented, student-lead college robotics club that not only competes in a variety of collegiate robotics competitions, but is also interested in spreading the word of science and technology to the community. Student leadership, organization, and time management are demonstrated in this club as we divide work and create schedules to finish projects on time. Mechanical, Electrical, and Software sub-teams each area work on their own tasks as well as communicating with the rest of the team. In addition, all club members are expected to participate in community outreach events, including mentoring, volunteering, judging, and demonstrating. This organization aims to be a well-represented group of students who not only wish to hone their own engineering skills, but also reach out to the local community as they spread their excitement for science and technology to society.”
