This year’s State Robotics Challenge will be Sunday, August 26 from 1 to 6 PM at the NY State Fair with time available to practice in the morning of that day. Thanks to the creativity of our Robotics Planning Team and the input of teams across the state, we’re growing the Challenge this year to include new ways for teams to get involved! This year’s challenge will include 3 parts: Part 1 will be a Lego challenge like last year where teams bring NXT or EV3 robots to accomplish challenge tasks. The theme will focus on natural disaster recovery. Part 2 will be a maze that teams can bring any kind of robot to navigate. Both Parts 1 and 2 will be held on August 26. Part 3 is an opportunity for teams to showcase their robot anytime during State Fair. This showcase could happen in county booths or in the Activity Zone and timing would be negotiated with the team.
Save the Date: August 26 State Fair, Syracuse NY
