Robotics Path C — Open Robotics Challenge

Robotics Path C

Open Robotics Challenge

Enter with your own robotics brand or custom-built robot. Same mission as Robotics Path A — prove your engineering with any platform.

⭐⭐ Intermediate – Advanced⚙️ Any Robot Brand🏎️ Same Mission as Path A

Your Mission 🎯

Build an autonomous robot that can complete the same mission as Robotics Path A:

  • Follow a black line
  • Deliver two objects to the required locations first
  • Then carry two objects
  • Return to the designated area
  • Stop automatically by itself
The mission must be completed autonomously through programming and sensor logic. Any robotics brand or custom robot is allowed.

Hardware Rules ⚙️

Students may use any robotics brand or custom robot. However, the robot must include:

✅ At least 2 Motors✅ At least 1 Servo✅ Fewer than 5 IR Sensors
Compatible platforms include: LEGO Mindstorms, Arduino, micro:bit, VEX, Makeblock, custom builds, and more.

Evaluation Criteria 📊

Since this is an open category, evaluation emphasises problem definition, engineering quality, and creative design more than specific hardware compliance.
