Equipo Vision Entrepreneurial Award & 2nd Place Winners
Citrus Hack, UCR, October 2016



FPV Battle Bots!
We created a system named 'FPV Battle Bots' where two users each wear Virtual Reality Google Cardboards and are able to control and fight a Bot. The bots have an accelerometer for detecting impacts and a USB Webcam mounted on two servo motors. The servos are able to rotate X and Y axis from the user's head rotation which streams video to the user's eyes all in real time. All design, manufacturing, and assembly was done onsite at Citrus Hack 2016.
