This year's contest has the participation of 10 university teams and 15 high school teams from many provinces and cities across the country.
The teams researched and developed solutions to design and program 2 smart robot models, applying advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), image processing, sensors and automatic control. The robots are programmed to be able to move, coordinate tactics, and handle flexible situations to perform direct combat tasks on the football simulation court...
