<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:115%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"><i>This is Professor Barry Dorr. I am the instructor for the
Senior Design (Capstone) program for the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
at SDSU. We have competed in the <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/learning-resources/lunabotics-challenge/" style="color:rgb(70,120,134)" target="_blank">NASA’s
Lunabotics Challenge</a> for the past four years. Besides doing well in the
competitions, it has been a great experience for our students and a source of
pride for the University. This year we are entering a team consisting of five
Electrical and Computer Engineering and five Mechanical Engineering Students.
The students are tasked to create a robot capable of performing operations on
the lunar surface in support of the Artemis Moon Exploration, and competing
against other schools at the Kennedy Space Center in May 2025. I am seeking a
mentor from industry who can guide this year’s team with navigation tasks
including collision avoidance and autonomy. This is an outstanding opportunity to
work with bright, motivated students and also help the University. If you are
interested, please send an email to me at <a href="mailto:bdorr@sdsu.edu" target="_blank">bdorr@sdsu.edu</a>.</i></p></div><div><br></div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Barry L.
