Minister for Education Visits AAV

NTU, Singapore

AAV had the honour of presenting its autonomous vehicles to Singapore’s Minister for Education, Mr Chan Chun Sing. The visit was joined by NTU President Prof Ho Teck Hua and NTU MAE Chair Prof Wai Yee Yeong.

The team shared upgrades made for RobotX 2024. Compared with earlier NTU RobotX entries, the craft had stronger navigation and performance, a more integrated propulsion module and a higher-performance processor managing navigation, communication and propulsion systems.

AAV also presented improvements in perception and aerial capability. The system used higher-resolution imaging and AI-assisted detection, while the UAV received stronger motors, a carbon fibre frame and a Jetson Nano powered robotic arm for object handling.

The visit recognised AAV as a student team working on national-relevant engineering skills, including autonomy, sensing, integration and maritime systems.
