AboutThe KIPR Autonomous Aerial Robot Tournament Game is an autonomous robotics challenge designed and distributed each year by the KISS Institute for Practical Robotics (KIPR) to encourage autonomous robotics education. The game is played each year at the Global Conference on Educational Robotics and at the European Conference on Educational Robotics. These game rules are free for educational use and are used in college courses and robotics events throughout the country. |
GameThis year we are building upon what we have learned from the 2017 game to take on a new form of the challenge: randomization. SpaceX has made it possible to reusable Falcon 9 rocket boosters by consistently landing on a moving platform that is moving at random in the ocean. This was an incredible engineering feat, and we’re going to take our game up a notch by having our own randomly moving platform. In front of you are three landing pads. All three are moving, with only two in a predictable pattern. You will need to successfully land on multiple pads in order to win this year’s challenge. The further away the pad, the faster it moves. To aid in the landing process, teams can place their own landing markers on the pads. |
