2018 – Competition Board

CALCULATED IMAGINATION!

The theme of 2018’s competition was “Calculated Imagination”, inspired by the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. Using only the kit of tools and materials provided, students were challenged to build a robot that can grab the golden tickets, lift Oompa-Loompas, and collect golden eggs!

The 2018 final robot competition was thanks to the continued support of our sponsors:
