What happened at AIM 2024

2024 the problem statement was about Self Driving
It was the same thing but slightly simpler but it was all about speed

It also had the regional finale as a simulation in Gazebo
Im thinking they were also using ROS

So if we find examples of last year we should have a great headstart

We also need to figure out who our judges would be
We can take a good guess from social media posts of NXP last year?

https://nxp.gitbook.io/nxp-aim/installation-of-nxp-aim-setup Found something

Sounds like the entire environment is made for installation under ubuntu 🤮

Update: they are using ros2 we need to figure out how to create a world like this for our use case im also somewhat sure we will get a similar document for our competition this year...

Hence the wait time probably

The above link has obstacle information that they used last year which is huge at this early into our prep

It literally has detailed guides to do this (interesting )

looks like the min IQ required to enter this is atleast knowing linux and knowing somewhat a bit of firmware developer

whoever made this website better be an official and not someone from the competition
