As a group of 6 students we take part at the competition ‚Student Robotics 2019/2020” in the United Kingdom.We have already divided our group up in a software team who are writing the codes and a hardware team who are building and planing the robot. (author: Daniel)

On our first day we arrived at London Gatwick and took a National Express bus to Southampton. As we checked into our Hotel and headed out looking for some food. After having lunch at a furniture shop of our choice, the assembly process of our bot started. On the next … Weiterlesen …

It finally arrived and we are so excited: The kit for the 2019 Student Robotics competition. Thank you! Since we already planned out most of our theoretical ideas and tactics, we can start with hardware and software development as soon as possible. We hope most of our competitors have good … Weiterlesen …
