Everything about Midwestern Robotics Design Competition
The Midwestern Robotics Design Competition (MRDC) was an annual student-run robotics competition held every March at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), where participant teams competed with self-constructed robots in an annual game objective. The competition was first held in 1987 and at the time of its last event was one of the oldest continuing robotics competitions in the United States. Prior to 2016, it was named the AMD Jerry Sanders Creative Design Competition (JSDC) after Jerry Sanders, a University of Illinois alumnus and the co-founder and former long-time CEO of AMD.
