Minisumo Contest

The “Minisumo” contest has two categories: Autonomous and BT/RC. In the autonomous category, each team must present a robot capable of autonomously detecting and pushing a rival robot from a circular ring in a hand-to-hand confrontation, using sensors, both to locate, follow and push the rival, as well as to stay inside the ring in your search. In the BT/RC category, each team must present a robot capable of pushing a rival robot from a circular wheel (Dohjo) in a hand-to-hand confrontation, its movement being controlled by its pilot through a wireless control.

Mini Humanoid Robot Race contest

The “Minihumanoid Robot Race Contest” is a speed competition between two autonomous bipedal humanoid robots, through a race carried out in two parallel lanes. The basic operating principle of the robot is its movement through its two lower joints, without any additional support point, autonomously, which is why it must be verified that the robot does not use another type of mechanism for its movement. This competition presents a single category, certified at the Master level, open to any competitor who has the necessary knowledge for this competition.

Line Follower Contest

A sprinter line follower is a mobile robot capable of following a simple route drawn along a line, without intersections, obstacles or acute angles, autonomously, using sensors and a programming algorithm, seeking to carry out its route in the most efficient way. as fast as possible. The basic operating principle of the robot is through line sensing, so it must be verified that the robot detects the line of the path and that it only bases its movement on said sensing, without using pre-programmed movements or remote control, or the use of some other type of sensor or encoder. This competition will present a single category: Amateur.

Soccer Robot Contest

In the 'Robot Soccer Contest' contestants must create mobile robots capable of playing soccer games in teams of three robots, controlled by wireless technology (Bluetooth or RC). The competition is divided into a single category, 'Amateur', and is aimed at higher education students and graduates. Robots must meet certain technical requirements and matches follow specific rules to ensure fair and transparent competition.

Combat Robot Contest

A Combat Robot is a wirelessly controlled mobile robot capable of engaging in hand-to-hand combat against a rival robot of similar characteristics, with the goal of immobilizing it for more than ten seconds through the use of a mechanical, pneumatic, or hydraulic weapon. The robot's operating principle is its movement through wireless control, and the pilot's skill in controlling their robot is judged. Therefore, it must be verified that the robot does not use sensors or pre-programmed routines for its movement. Each competitor is responsible for their own safety, that of their teammates, the public, and their robot when entering this category. They must also be aware of the dangers involved in such a competition. This competition has two categories: 3D (validated in the Amateur League) and AntWeight – 1 Lb (validated in the Senior League). Competitors are selected according to the robot pilot's educational level and the type of robot being used.

Quadruped Robot Challenge

In the “Quadruped Robot Challenge” contest, each team presents a quadruped robot of the Robodog type, which is a mobile robot that is capable of imitating and moving like a BT or RC controlled dog. This robot will have to go through a circuit in the shortest time possible and in the different difficulties of the competition. Making use of sensors, lidar, among others. The basic operating principle of the robot is that through the sensors placed in the structure of the robot, it can pass the different obstacles present throughout the different modules of the circuit. The competition will present a single category, called “Master”.

Intercode

In the “Intercode” programming competition, you will test your skills, creativity and ability to solve complex problems under pressure. Here they will have the opportunity to demonstrate their mastery in various areas of programming, from algorithms to data structures. “Intercode” aims to encourage the development (from analysis, design and programming) of computational solutions that prioritize the execution time of algorithms using programming techniques.

Biomedical Innovation Challenge

The 'Biomedical Innovation Challenge' is a prestigious competition focused on innovation and technological development in the field of biomedical engineering. Its main objective is to offer participants the opportunity to develop innovative ideas that can solve any of the 6 proposed themes of the contest, covering two categories: 'Research' and 'Design and Simulation'. In the 'Research' category, participants immerse themselves in scientific and technological exploration, discovering new ways to address biomedical problems. From the development of novel therapies to the improvement of diagnostic techniques and devices. On the other hand, in the 'Design and Simulation' category, participants are invited to use their creativity and technical skills to present projects that involve the development of innovative prototypes and simulations in the biomedical field. This category focuses on the practical application of engineering concepts to solve real and specific problems of your project within the developed topics.
