? Join us to learn and build robots and showcase your team's skills in robotics by building the best robot! Students, researchers, experienced individuals, startup representatives are welcome to join robotics hackathon RoboBattle48, organized by Riga Technical University (RTU) Science and Innovation Centre in collaboration with SAF Tehnika JSC, Latvian Electrical Engineering and Electronics Industry Association (LETERA), Latvijas Finieris and RS Deliveries.ℹ️ During this hackathon you will collaborate with your team to generate ideas and construct a robot by using materials within the designated time frame. RoboBattle48 will consist of 7 phases, guiding you and your teammates through the process for smoother idea realization and robot construction.
After the end of the combat robot building phase, two competitions will be held:
Design Competition: Each team will need to give a 3-minute presentation about their robot. Special prizes will be awarded in several disciplines announced at the event.
Combat Robot Tournament: This will be a single-elimination tournament for all eligible combat robots. Participants will be randomly divided into the tournament bracket and will have to compete in the arena. To advance to the next competition stage, a participant must win at least two matches. If a participant loses, they are eliminated from the competition.
? Prizes will be awarded to the first three places!
The event is organized as a 48-hour hackathon and starts on Friday, May 10 at 18:00 and concludes on Sunday, May 12 at 16:00. It will take place at Riga Technical University, The Moon.
Register here by May 6: https://ej.uz/applyrobobattle48
! After the event, all participants will have the opportunity to continue working independently on enhancing their combat robots in preparation for the upcoming Robotics Championship, scheduled for May 18 at RTU. Further details will follow soon.
