Information about the competition, the regulations, the event programme, results and other information can be found on the website robotuskola.lv

The aim of the event is to promote children's and young people's interest in engineering and robotics, which is one of the fastest-growing fields in the world.

PARTICIPANTS

The contest is open to members of technical creativity clubs, enthusiasts and robotics club members, who are divided into three age groups: students in grades 1-5, students in grades 6-12 and university students and amateurs from Latvia.

In some competition disciplines there is a single combined group and it is not divided into age groups. If in any of the competition disciplines the number of participants in any of the age groups is small, the competition will be held in mixed age groups.

The exact division of each discipline into age groups will be announced on 2 September. The competition schedule and results will be published on the competition website.

DISCIPLINES

The competition disciplines are divided into two groups – the LEGO robot group and the Electronics robot group.

Disciplines in the LEGO group (Mindstorms NXT2.0 and EVE 3.0):

  • LEGO Sumo
  • LEGO Folkrace
  • LEGO Linefollower

Disciplines in the Electronics robot groups:

  • MINI Sumo
  • Folkrace
  • Linefollower
  • Linefollower PRO (with turbines)

Participation in the event is free of charge, and there are no limits on the number of registered robots, the number of team members or the age of the participant.

Registration is open until 26 August at 23:59. The competition organisers ask you not to leave registration until the last minute, because timely registration will allow the order and timing of the competition to be planned more precisely!

Photography and filming will take place during the event. By registering for and taking part in the event, participants consent to being photographed and filmed for publicity purposes and for coverage of the event.

Due to the epidemiological situation declared in the country, participants must themselves provide individual protective equipment in accordance with legislation.

Participants must bring their own electrical extension cords.

A preparation area for the competition will be available to participants.

Mini Sumo and iRobot Sumo participants must also bring gloves, and while the robot is not taking part in a fight in the ring, safe covers must be fitted on the blades so as not to injure other competitors!
