The Challenge not only aims to stimulate students’ interests in technology and engineering, but also develop their creativity in solving problems. Prior to the competition, students took part in a series of workshops on robot-building, programming, 3D printing and drone operation, to prepare for the creation of their unique robots for the “Flying Robot” and “Penalty Kick” challenges at the finals.
