Yes, video games are a great transition to robotics. Many of these competitions have students design, build and program teleoperated robots. This means that students remotely control the machines with use of a gamepad controller. This gamepad looks almost exactly like what they already use to play xBox or PlayStation so high school students are immediately captivated by the similarities these competitions have with their current interests. In fact, by talking to team members we found out that some of the students that control the robot are usually recruited because of their existing skills in video games. In fact, the gamepad controls are completely customized to the driver and can often be dynamic and change during the matches. Some of the BEST Robotics students that use Simulink to program their robots surprise us every year with new creative ways to program their gamepads to be more competitive. The Simulink Design Award Winners are always a great example of this innovation, You can check out our summary of the 2018 winning models to see how high school students program different gamepad controls for their robots to account for dynamic speeds and automation of basic robot tasks.
This is the ultimate achievement if you are part of a high school robotics club. Guinness World Records officially recognized the VEX Robotics World Championship as the largest robot competition in the world in 2018. This event hosts more than 1000 teams, or 30,000 students, competing in different games using robots built from VEX Robotics components. Teams come from over 50 countries across the globe and the event encompasses a whole week where students, teachers and educators celebrate education achievements as a larger robotics and STEM community.
By attending these events, we have been able to interact with many teachers and students to show them how they could apply some the latest trends in robotics to be more competitive. Equally, we learnt a lot from the participants of the competition. For instance, the VEX Robotics Challenge has robots play a specific game in two rounds. The first round of every match is an autonomous round, in which the robot must perform tasks without any input from the drivers. In the second round, the student drivers with the gamepads can continue controlling the robots for the remainder of the match. Programming autonomous behavior brings an extra level of difficulty and is essential for top scoring teams. These type of lessons help us create content like our Robot Autonomy and Control Workshop to help students participate in these challenges. We also get a chance to interact with the educators of the next generation of engineers and understand which technology is most relevant and how we can provide content and tools that will be beneficial to the STEM community.
If you are interested in learning more about the content we create and how we sponsor these competitions make sure to visit our webpage, and as always feel free to tell us what you think in the comments section below.
