Teams selected for this year’s competition come from universities all over the United States, Germany, Taiwan, China, Colombia, and Australia. The teams are using big iron hardware with off-the-shelf (or off-the-wall!) solutions for staying within a 26 amp power limit to survive zombie invasions, discover exotic particles, forecast storms, and sequence DNA!
