ROBOSIM

In the Robosim Competition, students will design and program robots to conquer a dynamic map filled with variety of challenges - from plotting alliance routes, activating flags, and encountering random challenges like launching spacecrafts.

Mechanics

1. Robot Tasks
There is a flight path on the map, and the robot needs to start from the start area to complete the basic tasks and random tasks on the flight path. Before building and programming start, the simulation system determines the placement of random mission props. The main frame of the task props refers to the schematic diagram of the task description. The actual construction of the props may be different. For example, the actual beams, pins and other structural colors are different, or the size and height are slightly different. Contestants should have the ability to adjust according to the actual situation. Once the location is determined, try to be the same for each game. Contestants can choose the tasks to be completed by themselves. Throughout the competition, the robot needs to drive along the flight path and complete various tasks set in the field according to the requirements of the "task process". Every time a task is completed, the corresponding task score can be obtained (See Appendix 1 for specific scores). The task area of the basic task is set according to the task rules and corresponds to the task area in the field, and all groups need to complete it. Random missions set up some obstacles or props around the flight path, and each group sets up random missions of varying numbers (see 5.4 randomness), players can choose the tasks to be completed by themselves. The random task is randomly determined and set at a certain position by the simulation system before programming and debugging starts.

The cubes of the alliance route planning task model are respectively set with left rows (ID11), right row (ID12), straight (ID13), any (ID14, refers to three routes can pass) four types of patterns.
Task process: The robot needs to pull out the joystick to make the cube rotate for more than one circle, and randomly display a pattern, and the pattern perpendicular to the pulling direction of the joystick is the effective pattern. The pattern of cubes facing the flight path specifies which flight path the robot needs to follow.

SuperAl super track competition virtual robot competition "Star Alliance"
SUPERAI ROBOSIM
1. Contest theme
In the year 2120 of the new era, two interstellar exploration teams carrying human sparks, after a long and arduous interstellar journey, successfully met on the planet Y1799 in the depths of the universe, and decided to rebuild a prosperous and full of vitality for mankind on this beautiful and strange planet. interstellar home.
Through the construction of the necessary facilities for production and living in the early stage, the new home has begun to take shape. Improve production and living standards, Human beings will form an interstellar alliance to jointly protect the new homeland, and will drive a new spaceship across the interstellar space to start a new round of interstellar exploration The theme of this mission is "Star Alliance". During the competition, the players of each team designed and produced robots within a limited time to complete tasks such as "Star Alliance" alliance route planning and launching spaceships.
2. Matching Scenes
The competition scene consists of a map and a mission model, as shown in the figure (the picture is for reference only, the actual scene is subject to the competition announcement).
The map is divided into flight lanes, starting areas, and alliance areas. Flight lanes refer to the areas surrounding the entire map, as shown in the figure below.
Flight path: The flight path is the area where robot activities and exploration tasks are placed. In the center is a black trajectory line, which is composed of straight lines, dashed lines, broken lines, and arcs.
