IARC revealed that the MIT group won the competition. Which means my design is no longer valid for competing in the competition. The three finalists was the MIT group, GA Tech and Embry-Riddle. MIT used a Quadrotor design with the laser range finder, which very much resembled my design. They used an Intel board for stabilization, movement and obstacle avoidance, while the ground station laptop did all the mapping and object identification. The GA Tech group used a CoAxial helicopter design, controlled by an Atmega controller and used the XBee communication system. The Emby-Riddle used a monocopter design that used an Arduino for control.
They will release the 6th mission on September 1st.
