A test run of "ET Robocon" competing for robot running with embedded software was held on August 11 (Saturday) at Kyoto Computer Gakuin (KCG).ET Robocon competes on how to make a self-propelled robot with a specified spec run smoothly on a course with various obstacles such as slopes.It competes with the design model of the running software and the result of actually running the robot.The Kansai Games are held every year with KCG as the venue.
The test run is for each participating group to run the actual course on the robot with the software installed, to find out the problems and get hints for improvement.On this day, a course was set up in the KCG classroom, and the robot blasted the course.Although there was still time to complete, no robot was found to run to the end, but each team seemed to have a good response.
The ET Robocon Kansai Tournament will be held on September 16th (Sunday) and 17th (Monday / holiday) at Kyoto University Graduate School Kyoto Station Satellite Hall.
