The Waterloo Aerial Robotics Group was founded in the fall of 1997 by a first year computer engineering student named Dave Kroetsch. With the help of Professor David Wang (Electrical and Computer Engineering), a small group of undergraduate computer engineering students officially started to work toward competing in the International Aerial Robotics Competition Millennium Event. Since then WARG has competed in numerous national and international competitions always bringing the most innovative ideas and designs.
WARG has competed in the International Aerial Robotics Competition for many years and has recently decided to enter into the 6th Annual Unmanned Systems Canada Student Unmanned Aerial Systems Competition. WARG will compete against world renowned universities from all across Canada, as soars across the skies and completes its objectives.
WARG is focused on the future and equipping its members with the knowledge and know how to succeed not just as a team but as individuals as well. It is a place that students can come to learn and get experience, as well as a place for students to hone and expand their skills and understanding.
