6.6 Data Sharing

A Data Sharing project has been established for registered teams competing in RoboNation’s autonomous competitions: RoboBoat, SUAS, RoboSub, and RobotX. This project aims to increase collaboration between teams and to provide access to shared resources and test data to validate and debug the reliability and robustness of teams’ machine vision algorithms. Access information will be provided in the team registration process, outlined in Section 5.1 Register and Intent to Compete.

6.6.1 Data Sharing Access Requirements

During the registration process, teams must provide a generic email account and a team acronym that is used in the Data Sharing project. The generic email can be associated with any email provider. An example of the Generic Email is: [e-mail]. The team acronym must be within 2-10 characters, abbreviating the team’s school or organization. Examples of the team acronym are: RN or ROBOTEAM.

Access is given to teams that complete the Registration form. Only official registered teams maintain access to the Data Sharing project for the competition season.
