News from the Center

Driverless technology was tested by the Driverless team with good results: a 2nd and a 3rd in Italy and Germany. Some last-minute challenges didn't deter the Hyperloop II team from placing first in the U.S. at the SpaceX Competition. High school students in our Engineering Design Workshop were featured in a WGBH podcast and our Student Shop just moved to 6C. Enjoy.
