Eurobot

EurobotEurobot is an educational concept based on robotics and passion for discovery, for creating and communicating knowledge and know-how. This concept is materialized as an international contest that is open to all young people between 16 and 30 years of age who form teams between 3 and 8 members within a school or a club.

This contest starts with championships including qualification matches within each country, unless there are less than 3 teams representing a country. For instance, the SwissEurobot Cup aims to select the best 3 teams who will represent Switzerland at the European Final of Eurobot. This year both the SwissEurobot Cup and the European Final will take place in Yverdon-les-Bains within Robots:15.

Eurobot aims at inciting young people into taking their learning into their own hands and to practice various skills at a fun and friendly event.

Theme and rules differ from year to year, but the basis always remains the same: Each team has to build one or two autonomous robots. The robots have to perform several actions on a 2 meters by 3 meters table within 90 seconds without any external help. They must not disturb the robots belonging to the opposite team. Goal is to gather as many points as possible during the 90 second match.
