About Deep Orange: an accelerated vehicle concept development program
Two-Year Master's Degree for Automotive Engineering Students
Deep Orange is a framework within Clemson University’s Department of Automotive Engineering that immerses students into the world of a future OEM or supplier. Students, multi-disciplinary faculty, and participating industry partners work collaboratively on producing a new vehicle prototype each year.

Four females are in a lab, looking over a blue device that holds samples.
0:37-0:46
The same device is seen again with two males and one female sitting in front of it, with a pen, paper, and a calculator. The students fade as a white Tiger Paw comes into focus in the center of the screen. The video concludes.

Overview
Each year, natural disasters cause significant damage and disruption to the nation’s transportation infrastructure, destroying delivery routes and complicating support efforts. In partnership with the U.S. Army, Clemson graduate students designed, built, and validated an autonomous off-road vehicle to deliver disaster relief supplies and map local environments without putting humans in harm’s way.
With more than 900 actively monitored parameters, the Deep Orange vehicle is one of the most advanced and unique research platforms of its kind, advancing the state of autonomous technology.
