Robotics: Technical Skills

Prepare to compete in Robocup Junior! Explore specialised robot designs and engineering challenges for the competition, along with coding techniques used for line tracking and object detection. Form teams and document your progress to enter the competition at the end of the term.

The Robocup Junior regional competition is running Saturday 27th June in Wellington. Our aim is for most students attending the class to compete, but you’re welcome to attend even if you’re unsure at this stage whether you’ll make the competition date.

Note for Scots College students: we will be running additional lunchtime sessions for students from Scots College to prepare for the competition. This means preferential treatment will be given to students outside of Scots College for our after school programme. Further details will be sent through the school very soon, but feel free to enquire about this by emailing [email protected]. For Scots College students registering after school, the process will look slightly different. Fill out the form as usual and we’ll send you a separate email with further details.

If you’re more interested in designing your own robots than entering the competition, take a look at our Creative Design robotics class.
