ROVER

Build a robot within specified dimensions that can travel through all kinds of terrains specified below in the least possible time.

Robot Specification
The robot can have a maximum dimension of:
  • Length : 30 cms

  • Breadth : 25 cms

  • Height : 25 cms

  • Weight : No restrictions

  • The robot can be wired or wireless or automatic.

  • The wheels or legs of the robot can be of any design.

  • Special attractive prizes for simple, unique design.


Voltage
The voltage source need not be onboard as per participants requirements and should not exceed 15V.

Note: A tolerance of 5% is allowed in the above mentioned parameters, taking into consideration the error of the measuring instruments that we use here and those used by the participants in the making of the robot. The relaxation is scientific and tolerable.

Qualifying Round
In this round the participant�s robot has to cross different terrains . Once the robot crosses the terrains, it is clear that the robot is eligible for the final round.

Task
  • This zone has four terrains.

  • First, it has speed breakers followed by a greasy path.

  • Then, there it will be a zig zag path.


Rules
  • The maximum number of participants allowed in a team is 3.

  • The teams that are qualified in the qualifying round will get the participation certificates.

  • No pre-assembled gear drives or mechanisms can be used. All of these mechanisms have to be made by the participants themselves.

  • Any action against fair play will lead to immediate disqualification.

  • In all cases the decision of Coordinators will be final.

  • Argument with the coordinators may lead to disqualification of the team. All the teams must abide by the coordinators instructions.

  • No comparison with the others robot is allowed.

  • The robot which exceeds the given dimensions will be disqualified or penalized.

  • A player cannot play in two teams.

  • Only 2 players can be near the operation of the robot. The second player is only to hold the wire from damaging the arena or to prevent the wire from getting stuck to their robot.

  • The wire should be slack at any point of the game.

  • If any problem arises the participant is allowed to touch the robot only once in each round. A time of 5minutes will be given for repair. He will be disqualified if he does not place his robot after 5minutes.

  • A team can give a maximum of 1 attempt.
