The Gannon engineering students were part of a team that built the robot during the 2018-19 school year as their senior project, which they presented to faculty on May 10, 2019. The robot is programmed with a route and then sensors keep it on that route. The team says this machine has 16 miles of battery life and can sweep up to four inches of snow.
