SDSM& T's team members with their majors and hometowns are Karl Hiramoto, computer engineering, Arlington; Angie Monheim, electrical engineering, Rapid City; and Marijane White, Computer engineering, Fort Wayne, IN. Rich Ivey, a computer science major from Sioux Falls, provided assistance with programming the robot.
