Fueled by “the love of the game,” a team of Mason Autonomy and Robotics Center students overcame GPS‑free technical challenges to take first place at the 2026 Raytheon Autonomous Vehicle Competition.

As the saying goes, if you love something, set it free. If it maps an area, finds a target, delivers a package, and comes back, the trophy is yours forever. Or something like that.

Bioinspired blimps performed swimmingly

��ɫ��Ƶ officially opened its Mason Autonomy and Robotics Center, a collaborative space where students will perform research on a variety of emerging fields related to artificial intelligence and autonomous devices.

Xuan Wang, an assistant professor in ��ɫ��Ƶ’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, is trying to ensure safety in human-computer autonomous systems.

The invite-only roundtable, hosted by the College of Engineering and Computing at Mason Square, explored the issues, challenges, and solutions to think about as AI technologies rapidly evolve and change.  The roundtable was led by Missy Cummings, director of Mason’s Autonomy and Robotics Center.

Seniors created an automated vehicle model as part of the Army Strategic Program for Innovation, Research, and Employment (ASPIRE).

Blimps filled the EagleBank Arena air at the Lighter Than Air (LTA) Defend the Republic competition in April. The winning Mason team, led by principal investigators Cameron Nowzari, Ningshi Yao, and Daigo Shishika, competed against six universities and about 50 LTA "blimps."

The College of Engineering and Computing hosts a national robotics competition at EagleBank Arena.
