Teams of students from Minority Serving Universities and community colleges developed algorithms for autonomous robot swarms to search and collect resources on Mars. The challenge is organized in two separate parts, a Physical Competition where actual robots search for and collect physical cubes representing resources, and a virtual competition where the robots and cubes are simulated and the robots interact with a virtual environment. A team from Montgomery College under Computer Science/Engineering faculty mentor Dr. David Kuijt spent the Spring 2017 semester learning and programming robots to compete in the Virtual Competition; Montgomery College was one of 15 teams selected to compete in the Virtual Competition. This is the second year of the Swarmathon Competition, and the first year that Montgomery College has participated. In the two preliminary rounds of the Virtual Competition, the robots using the code programmed by the Montgomery College team collected 188 cubes, more than the combined total number of cubes collected by all nine of the other teams that managed to submit code. In the quarter finals MC's robots still performed well enough to advance but were overcoming major issues; the same thing happened in the semifinals. In the final round of the competition MC's robots managed to win by a score of 20 cubes to 16, defeating the University of Hawaii at Hilo, and winning first place in the NASA Swarmathon Virtual Competition and a $3000 prize. The Montgomery College team is planning to celebrate their victory by signing up for the Physical Competition next year; within a few months they will be testing their code on physical robots in a segment of the campus parking lots. Congratulations to our outstanding Swarmathon team: Jalalah Abdullah, Denys Fedorchuk, Denis Tra Bi, Rebekah Newby, Michael Bailey, Amit Millo, Shayan Taslim, Michael Tang, Huyen Vu, Daniel Levine, Abhi Sharma, Suriya Iqbal, and Logan Wallace!

Start HereWhether you are building a presentation, designing an event flyer or creating a department report, adding the official Montgomery College logo gives your work instant visual recognition and authority. You do not need to be a professional graphic designer, or memorize a long list of branding guidelines, to make your materials look crisp and polished. By focusing on just three quick tips, you can choose, place and resize the MC logo every time with confidence. 1. Choose the Layout That Fits Your Space The MC logo comes in two primary configurations so it can adapt seamlessly to different document types: <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"> Horizontal Logo: Works best in wide spaces such as document headers, banners, email signatures and top or bottom page margins. </li> </ul> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="1"> Stacked Logo: Ideal for square or vertically oriented spaces, such as social media graphics, centered flyer titles and narrow columns. </li> </ul> 2. Give the Logo Room to Breathe To keep our brand clear and recognizable, always surround the logo with empty space (also known as clear space). Avoid crowding the logo against text, photos, decorative graphics or page borders. Giving the logo a little breathing room ensures it stays readable and makes your overall layout clean and intentional. 3. Resize Easily in Microsoft Word The most common logo mishap is accidental distortion--squishing or stretching the logo so it appears flattened or elongated. When adding a logo to Microsoft Word: <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"> Drag from the corners: Always click and drag one of the four corner handles to scale the image up or down while maintaining correct proportions. </li> </ul> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="1"> Avoid side and top handles: Pulling from the center handles on the top, bottom or sides will stretch or flatten the logo. </li> </ul> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="2" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="3" data-aria-level="1"> Use the Reset tool: If a logo gets pulled out of shape, simply right-click the image, select Format Picture and click Reset Picture to return it to its original proportions instantly. </li> </ul> Access Approved Logo Files and Video Tutorials You never have to worry about finding the right logo format or high-resolution file.
