Robotix 2012

A Vote of Thanks

robotix — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 18:12:17 +0000

It is finally done. The curtain has fallen on the tech-extravaganza that was Robotix 2012. With problem statements that challenged the very frontiers of amateur robotics in India, we applaud all our participants for attempting them with amazing prowess. From fires in the arena to ziplines, processing overhead camera feeds in a simulated 'bomb diffusal' to balancing water on highly atrocious terrain, from the collaboration of bots to traverse multiple arenas simultaneously to predicting who said what in a chat, every event was a novelty in itself. We hope that it was as much fun for all of you as it was for us, organising it. And to the winners who cleared every hurdle with brilliant colours, we congratulate you most heartily and hope that you will continue your winning streak in the years to come!
Cheers! Team Robotix
