Grace Sopko has been an officer in DAM Robotics since joining in 2023. Her work has transformed our club’s accounting and revitalized our marketing. All of these contributions came alongside completing two MECOP internships, attaining a Six Sigma Green Belt Certification, and maintaining membership in the Alpha Pi Mu Honor Society.

Grace will be taking a gap year to work in industry before attending graduate school in Europe. We’d like to thank her for the extensive contributions to the club and wish her good luck in future endeavours.

Thank you Grace and congratulations on graduation!

Underwater has accomplished switching from ROS 1 to ROS 2 and developing new parts for the robot. We have also taken apart the ROV to replace the pressure housing.

We hope to finish replacing the pressure housing next term, and we hope to be able to test our ROV in the water. We are all super pumped about getting ready for the competition in the spring!

A huge thank you to our team specific sponsors! Kenesto

Many new students and some returning students were recruited to the Combat Robotics team this term. Some of the newest members of the team built their own bots for the fall term competition: Combat Robotics’ Fall Fracas Competition, hosted by the Robotics Club here on campus.

We are so excited for winter term, where the Robotics Club will host The Combat Robotics’ Winter Wars Competition, which is coming up fast. Of course, you do not have to be a member to compete, so CAD, print, and assemble a bot to watch plastic fly!

This term, the rover team has onboarded and trained new members, started 4 capstone projects, began a redesign of our science mechanisms, and held our first two design reviews of the year. For training, we planned and held a mini-competition to help new members get a better grasp of our season end-goal. Our capstone projects include a three-finger gripper, a new autonomous navigation system, a real-life accurate rover simulation, and a three-axis gimbal for active image stabilization. Our science and science mechanism teams are developing a core sample collection system and a topsoil collection-to-onboard chemical analysis system.



We are excited to continue developing or rover to prepare for our 2026 competitions: the University Rover Challenge (27-30 May in Utah) and the Canadian International Rover Challenge (7-10 August in Alberta).
