Chewbacca and his adorable ewok associates are trapped inside the evil Empire stronghold! When you - C-3PO, an autonomous, cantankerous, and perpetually problematic robot - last saw them, they worshiped you as a god - now it's <em>your</em> turn to help <em>them</em>.</p> <p>Come join us for the annual UBC Engineering Physics Robot Competition. Sixteen teams have been working throughout the summer to build fully autonomous Ewok rescue bots from scratch and they'll compete head-to-head on <strong>Thursday, August 9, at 10 am </strong>in room 2210 of the UBC Life building (the old SUB). No registration is required, but please let us know if you're group is bigger than four by emailing Dylan Gunn (dcgunn@physics.ubc.ca).</p> <p><strong>More about the rescue mission:</strong></p> <p>Chewbacca and the ewoks have managed to break free from their prison cells and are hiding at strategic locations throughout the stronghold waiting for you to rescue them, but it's only a matter of time (two minutes, to be precise) until they're discovered by the storm troopers.</p> <p>You'll need to cross a chasm to enter the stronghold, make your way through the stronghold without triggering the stormtrooper alarm, climb up onto the prison tower, traverse a suspension bridge above a lava pit and then ride a zipline back to rescue rendezvous point at the start of the course.</p> <p>Points are awarded for every Rebel Alliance plush doll that make it back to the rendezvous point in one piece. Good luck!</p> <p><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/18rYIVlMZeD559deR7-5YjfQzZz4BeeS6pr8FI5Qlm8Q/edit">Competition rules</a></p> <div><p><a href="https://apsc.ubc.ca/" target="_blank"></a></p> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 group-right"> <div class="event-image"> <img src="https://apsc.ubc.ca/sites/default/files/img/2018-07/EngPhys%20Robot%20Competition.jpg" width="1280" height="783" alt="Engphys Robot Competition" typeof="foaf:Image" /></div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 group-footer"> <iframe class="gmap" width="800" height="400" frameborder="0" style="border:0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=6138+Student+Union+Boulevard&iwloc=near&t=m&z=14&output=embed"></iframe> </div> </div> Tue, 24 Jul 2018 20:38:47 +0000 cindy.cen 10523 at https://apsc.ubc.ca https://apsc.ubc.ca/event/2018/mel-mhlp-one-on-one-consultations <div data-history-node-id="10549" class="node node--type-event node--view-mode-rss ds-2col-stacked clearfix"> <div class="col-xs-12 group-header"> <h1> MEL & MHLP — One-on-One-Consultations </h1> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-8 group-left"> <div></div> <div class="event-duration"> <span class="event-start-date event-date"> <span class="field-label-inline">Date:</span> <span> Aug 30, 2018 - 8:00 AM</span> </span> <span class="event-end-date event-date"> <span class="field-label-inline">to</span> <span> Aug 30, 2018 - 7:00 PM</span> </span> </div><div class="event-location"> <span class="field-label-inline">Location</span> <span> UBC Robson Square Campus </span> </div> <div><p><a href="https://apsc.ubc.ca/" target="_blank"></a></p> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 group-right"> <div class="event-image"> <img src="https://apsc.ubc.ca/sites/default/files/img/2018-07/870x420%20MEL%2BMHLP%20web%20featured%20photo.jpg" width="870" height="420" alt="MEL MHLP" typeof="foaf:Image" /></div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 group-footer"> <iframe class="gmap" width="800" height="400" frameborder="0" style="border:0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=800+Robson+St%2C+Vancouver%2C+BC+V6Z+3B7&iwloc=near&t=m&z=14&output=embed"></iframe> </div> </div> Fri, 27 Jul 2018 22:16:37 +0000 cindy.cen 10549 at https://apsc.ubc.ca https://apsc.ubc.ca/event/2018/14-not-forgotten-memorial <div data-history-node-id="10552" class="node node--type-event node--view-mode-rss ds-2col-stacked clearfix"> <div class="col-xs-12 group-header"> <h1> 14 Not Forgotten Memorial </h1> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-8 group-left"> <div></div> <div class="event-duration"> <span class="event-start-date event-date"> <span class="field-label-inline">Date:</span> <span> Nov 28, 2018 - 12:00 PM</span> </span> <span class="event-end-date event-date"> <span class="field-label-inline">to</span> <span> Nov 28, 2018 - 7:00 PM</span> </span> </div><div class="event-location"> <span class="field-label-inline">Location</span> <span> Engineering Design Centre</span> </div> <p>To memorialize the lives lost on December 6, 1989 at l’Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal.</p> <div><p><a href="https://apsc.ubc.ca/" target="_blank"></a></p> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 group-right"> <div class="event-image"> <img src="https://apsc.ubc.ca/sites/default/files/img/2018-07/2017-11-29%2014NotForgotten_ClareKiernan%20041_0.JPG" width="4608" height="2816" alt="14 not forgotten" typeof="foaf:Image" /></div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 group-footer"> <iframe class="gmap" width="800" height="400" frameborder="0" style="border:0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=2345+E+Mall%2C+Vancouver%2C+BC+V6T+1Z4&iwloc=near&t=m&z=14&output=embed"></iframe> </div> </div> Tue, 31 Jul 2018 16:54:10 +0000 cindy.cen 10552 at https://apsc.ubc.ca
