Competition Domains
Your solution would be evaluated (challenged) in two different domains.

BEWARE: Competition is for prizes!!

Virtual Domain
Real-World Domain
In the virtual challenge, your solution will be evaluated in the MRS multirotor simulation environment. The evaluation will be performed on an unseen world similar to surface_mine_large.problem
In the real-world challenge, as the name suggests, your solution will be evaluated on a pair of real drones. The world will be similar, but with less obstacles and view points.
Competition Scoring
The rubric for scoring is as follows:
Primary Key: Score
The score is given by the sum of successfully inspected successfully.
Your score will be 0 if your solution:
- Does not inspect a single inspection point
- Violates the assigned dynamic constraints of UAVs
- Violates the minimum allowed distance between obstacles and UAVs
- Violates the minimum allowed mutual distance between UAVs
- Violates the maximum distance of final trajectory point to the predefined starting location
- Exceeds maximum available time for computing a solution
The thresholds of the above mentioned metrics are on github
Secondary Key: Overall Time
The overall time is calculated as the sum of inspection time and penalization time
- Inspection Time: The time you need for actual inspection
- Penalization Time: The time exceeding the soft time limit for computing a solution
Please check github for more information
How to participate in the challenge?
If you made it this far in this web-page, it is safe for us to assume that you would want to participate in the challenge/competition.
- All participants will be divided into 2 GROUPS.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
To participate in the competition, you MUST fill out the given google form with the details of the team, its members and your solution, by August 4th, 11:59 p.m.
- Please don't forget to modify the parameters in config/real_world.yaml according to your findings/configuration in config/virtual.yaml in the mrim_planner folder.
- Please zip the mrim_planner folder and verify that your zip archive is valid and contains also its content in the sub-directories. Otherwise, we will have to disqualify the team. Download the uploaded zip folder and verify its contents!
- Please fill out the form only ONCE per ****team. You can modify the submission till the deadline. Please edit the submitted form if you wish you submit another solution before the deadline
