Round 1: Quiz Competition
All participating teams are required to engage in the initial round of the competition, structured as a Quiz format. Each team will be presented with a questionnaire designed to evaluate their knowledge and skills in a specific topic covered during the workshop sessions.
The winners of this phase will be determined based on the highest number of correct answers provided by each team.
Stage 2: On-Spot Arena (Level 1)
Following the Quiz Competition, teams participating in the Robotics Championship are urged to come prepared with a wheeled robot with IR sensors. Subsequently, in Stage 2, teams will engage in an on-spot arena which to be solved with a limited time window of 5 minutes. Evaluation criteria will include project readiness, technical complexity, time management, components knowledge and teamwork. Points or grades will be awarded based on performance in these areas.
AT THE END OF DAY 1 ASSESSMENT OF BOTH THE ROUNDS WILL BE DONE (BY TRAINERS) AND TEAMS QUALIFYING FOR FINAL ROUND WILL BE ANNOUNCED NEXT DAY.
Final Round: On-Spot Arena (Level 2)
Teams scoring highest cumulative score/grades from the Quiz Competition and Stage 2, known as ‘Task Completion’, will progress to the Final Round. Here, teams will be assigned a task to accomplish within a specified time frame within the arena. The team demonstrating the most efficient completion of the on-spot task with minimal time utilization will be declared the competition winner.
Scoring and Judgment:
Scoring and judgment throughout all stages will be conducted by event coordinators and technical evaluators. Their decisions will determine the final winners at the national level.
Please Note: The judges’ verdict will stand as the ultimate authority in declaring the National-Level Line Follower Champions.
Robot Design:
The participating robot must be two-wheeled, autonomous and wireless. Robot should be built on a chassis of circular or rectangular shape with dimensions not exceeding Length: 25 cm X Width: 15 cm X Height: 8 cm. Maximum weight of the robot should not be more than 3kg.with all components mounted on it.
Components Allowed:
- Arduino: Nano or Uno.
- IR sensors: Maximum up to 5.
- Motor driver: L293D or similar.
- DC motors: 2 (Maximum 300 RPM).
- Caster wheel: 1.
- Battery Specifications: Batteries should be sealed, immobilized electrolyte type (gel cell, lithium, NiCad, or dry cells).The electric voltage anywhere in the machine should not be more than 12 V DC at any point in time for the robot.
Functionality:
- The robot must be autonomous and wireless.
- Movement should not be limited to only one direction; the robot must be capable of moving in all directions.
- No wireless communication between the robot and participants is allowed. Bluetooth, RF Module, etc., are not permitted on the robot.
- No use of PID programming.
Materials and Construction:
- Any robotic parts/building material can be used as long as the robot meets the above specifications.
- The design and construction must be primarily the original work of the team; ready-made robots (LEGO, Pre-Programmed) are not allowed to compete in the championship.
Note: Participants must ensure that their robots adhere to these specifications to be eligible for the Line Following Robot, any robots not following the guidelines may lead to disqualification.
- All the lines should be in Black.
- External Power Supply is not allowed.
