Robofest Exhibition Competitions

The robotics exhibition is a great way for students to show off their imagination and creativity. Each team has complete freedom to create autonomous robotics projects such as robot pets, robot artists, dancing robots, storytelling with robots, robots for scientific experiments, and practical robotics applications. Teams are composed of one to seven members. In general, two students are recommended per robot. Computer controlled robots may be of any size and can use any material as long as it is safe for team members as well as spectators. Even though human controlled remote is not allowed, wireless host computer control is allowed.

Some of the best robotic exhibitions as well as recommended themes are as follows:

Suggested Exhibition Ideas!

  • Robotics technology to save energy at home, office, or building
  • Robotics technology to generate electricity, efficiently; For example, to control the angle of solar panels
  • Robotic City and Robotic Aerotropolis designed to save energy and to reuse/recycle materials
