RISE THE AUTOBOTS

Event Duration: 3 to 5 hours (including breaks)

Team Size: 3-4 members per team

Format: 4 knockout rounds

Event Overview:

The Rise of Autobots is an exhilarating robotics competition designed to challenge students in designing, assembling, and programming obstacle-avoidance robots. Participants will work in teams to complete a series of tasks that test their problem-solving, programming, and hardware integration skills. Each round will be an elimination stage, making the competition more intense and engaging as teams progress.

Event Structure:

The competition consists of four knockout rounds, each designed to test different aspects of robotics and teamwork.

Round 1: Rapid Assembly Challenge

Teams will be provided with disassembled obstacle-avoidance robot kits.

They must assemble their robots within a limited timeframe.

The fastest and most accurate assemblies qualify for the next round.

Round 2: Basic Navigation Challenge

Teams will program their robots using Arduino to navigate a predefined track with minor obstacles.

The robots must successfully move from point A to point B without human intervention.

Teams with the best time and minimal errors will proceed.

Round 3: Complex Obstacle Avoidance

The track now includes unpredictable obstacles requiring teams to fine-tune their robots' sensors and algorithms.

Robots must autonomously avoid obstacles and complete the course.

The top-performing teams will advance to the final round.

Round 4: Autonomous Maze Escape

The final challenge is a dynamic maze, where robots must autonomously find their way out.

Teams will have limited time to adjust their code before executing the final run.

The team with the fastest and most efficient robot wins!

Event Requirements:

Kits: Obstacle-avoidance robot kits with essential components.
Computers & Software: Laptops with Arduino IDE pre-installed.
Workspace: Tables for teams to work on assembling and programming their robots.
Judges & Mentors: Faculty members or robotics experts to monitor and guide.
Timer & Scoreboard: To track performance across rounds.

Engagement and Rewards:

Live Leaderboard: A screen displaying real-time rankings to boost competition.
Break Sessions: Short, interactive breaks with robotics trivia or discussions.
Prizes & Certificates: Winning team receives awards; all participants get certificates.
Social Media Coverage: Capture and share event highlights on Instagram and other platforms.

Information for Participants

Rules & Regulations:

1. Each team must consist of 3-4 members.

2. Teams must use only the provided robot kits and components.

3. Any external modifications or pre-coded programs are strictly prohibited.

4. Teams must submit their final code before each round starts.

5. Violating time limits or tampering with other teams’ robots will lead to disqualification.

6. Judges’ decisions will be final and binding.

7. Participants must adhere to safety guidelines while handling components.

8. Any misconduct or unsportsmanlike behavior will result in disqualification.
