Beyond Botball is a high-energy game designed for any robot enthusiast who has finished high school or its equivalent by January 2006. College students, hobbyists, engineers, teachers, etc are all invited to join in the excitement and challenge of Beyond Botball 2006! The game is played on a 4’ x 8’ board. Your robot competes by using robot design and strategy to move objects into scoring position in a challenging robot face-off. Following robot guidelines, Beyond Botball participants build robots using any building materials, processors, and sensors they feel serve the objective of the game. The game rules and guidelines can be downloaded below and the competition will take place at the 2006 National Conference on Educational Robotics in Norman, OK on July 7-10.
The National Conference on Educational Robotics gives students, teachers, and robotics professionals the chance to show their work on the playing field as well as share their ideas and give presentations in various breakout sessions. All papers presented will be published in the 2006 NCER Conference Proceedings. Cost for participation in Beyond Botball includes an individual registration fee for the National Conference on Educational Robotics plus a $25 team entry fee.
