The meeting is open to anyone interested in helping with the state championship tournament, which will be held on Saturday, January 23, 2010 at the Georgia Tech Student Center and Student Center Commons.

The challenge this year is called "Smart Move" and involves research and design of self-propelled vehicles. Teams will build a sensor-equipped robotic vehicle to gain access to places and things, while avoiding and surviving impacts.
