Let’s face it - it might be a while before we can return to hand to hand combat - so why not have a robot do your bidding for you? Meet The Sumo Bot, a maniacal battler of brute force and binary. Two bots shall enter the ring, only one will leave victorious. Will it be yours?
Robots can be coded using blockly which is easy-to-use block-based coding or Javascript. Anyone can enter the competition by creating an account and building code on the http://roboton.io/ site. We will also be holding coding hang out sessions on May 26th and June 7th, from 6 - 8 PM. If you are newbie, this is will be a great opportunity to start learning.
Please register for all events if you plan on attending and/ or participating.
Join us for the bracket - based competition live on June 21st, following the Nashua Robot Builders Meeting (some point after 7:15 PM, more info here.) By registering you will be able to watch the competition! Virtual prizes will be given for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.
