Lake Superior State University's Engineering Senior Project Team CAMRI created an autonomous robot that can dispense foam hockey pucks two at a time to the crowd at the Taffy Abel ice arena. The robot did so during the first intermission of the LSSU Lakers 3-1 win on February 26, 2022. This might be the first time an autonomous robot was used at a Division I hockey game.

The mobile robot platform is an MiR autonomous mobile industrial robot. A Universal collaborative robot arm is mounted on top of the MiR and the students designed and 3D printed the barrel, among other components, through which the pucks are launched.
