Competition Details
There are four main sections of the competition. Firstly, in the teamwork activity, students are interviewed by a panel of judges or participate in a teamwork exercise. Secondly, in the technical presentation, the students must demonstrate that the robot they built is designed appropriately for the tasks given (effective design, use of sensors, etc.). Thirdly, in the research project, the students must do a research project and give a short presentation to a panel of judges on the investigative problem-solving they completed. Finally, the students must use the robots they designed and built to autonomously complete a set of tasks on a playing field.
