Schulich ROAM: Robotics Operation for Autonomous Mapping, a student robotics club at the University of Calgary.
BUILT BY BUILDERS
ROAM (Robotics Operation for Autonomous Mapping) is a newly founded student robotics club at the Schulich School of Engineering, University of Calgary, driven by curiosity, innovation, and hands-on engineering. Our mission is to bring together students from different technical backgrounds to build advanced autonomous systems from the ground up.
WE BELIEVE ROBOTICS SHOULD DO MORE THAN MOVE.
ROAM aims to become a hub for ambitious builders who want to create autonomous machines that solve real-world problems in mapping, infrastructure inspection, and environmental monitoring.
