Overview
The RoboMaster Youth Challenge is a brand-new category within the NRC which derives its format from the Robomaster Robotics Competition and is targeted at young participants. Launched by DJI and in collaboration with SCS, the Challenge requires young participants to form teams and engage in battles by operating their self-developed or modified robots.
It focuses on building the theoretical engineering knowledge and AI application skills among youths and helping them progress from mastering robotic basics and programming to AI and robot control theory. Its competitive format is a test of the participants’ quick adaptability, problem detection and problem-solving skills. Meanwhile, the Challenge will also put the participants’ teamwork and a sense of responsibility to the test.
Competition format
On the 1st day of the competition, teams consisting of 3 participants will be pitted against 3 other opposing teams to engage in 3v3 tactical shooting battles as well as perform various tasks in a specially designed arena. Points will be awarded for various objectives and top 8 teams with the most points scored will be invited back for the second day of competition where these finalists will participate in “knock-out” competition play to determine the winners.
