[Yonas Teodros]

Dear Colleagues,

The IEEE Telepresence is happy to share the Telepresence Competition that will be held in Perth, Western Australia, from October 5–6, 2025.

The competition will challenge participating teams to remotely control a rover through an obstacle course as quickly as possible.  Teams must navigate around each waypoint without hitting it.  The team with the best time, less any penalties assessed for missing or hitting waypoints, will win a cash prize of $5000 USD split equally among the team members.
