MathWorks Minidrone Masters

The MathWorks Minidrone Competitions introduce participants to Model-Based Design using Simulink. Through these competitions, participants design a line follower algorithm for a minidrone. Along the way, they receive an introduction to Model-Based Design—they'll design the system, model its behavior, and deploy their algorithm to hardware.

Below are the winners of the most recent MathWorks Minidrone Competitions.
