Echipa va fi complet izolata de robot.

Robotul va fi monitorizat si controlat pe baza software-ului dezvoltat. Studentii trebuie sa gestioneze intreaga activitate a robotului.

Students completely isolated from Robot

Robot monitoring and control via developed software Students must successfully manage robot






Earth-Rover 2011

1. Testing vehicle mobility and remote control system - Team must navigate their remote robot in daylight throughand over challenging physical obstacles to reach a goal. (stairs, rocks, etc)

2. Testing remote control in daylight - Team must navigate and reach a target during daylight and complete a task,perhaps knocking down a target cylinder without touching others

3. Testing night vision system and control - Team must navigate and reach a target during night and complete a

task, perhaps knocking down a target cylinder without touching others4. Testing GPS - With remote vision system disabled, the team must navigate as close to a remote target only using

only the Global Positioning System interface in their robot and remote control system. The closest team wins.

5. Robot Speed - The team must successfully navigate a course in the shortest time possible.

6. Robot Endurance - The team must complete as many courses as possible before their remote battery systems fail.

7. Design onsiderations and Public peaking - The teams must do a public presentation presenting their robot and

their design considerations.8. Robot Talent Show - Each team must demonstrate one function they added to their robot that will complete a

special task. The most unique, successful and practical task that applies to remote exploration robotics wins.

. - .then navigate their robot to a target point to complete a task.

10. Remote Reset - Team must demonstrate in event of a system failure that they can completely reset their robots

from remote and then successfully complete a task.

This event list is preliminary, for example only. The final events for the main competition will be provided in March.
