In 2021, RoboCo collaborated with robotics non-profit FIRST Global to produce their first-ever virtual robotics challenge. Called The FIRST Global RoboCo Challenge (or FGRC21), over 37 countries participated in a two-month long challenge to build the best robots. To learn more, make sure to check out fgrc21.roboco.co!
⚙ Structure ⚙
The challenge season was divided into 3 rounds of competitive play: Qualifiers, Playoffs, and Finals. Each round of the challenge started when the game board was released. Game boards are objective-based scenarios (AKA puzzle spaces) in RoboCo. Each board was comprised of 1 main objective, 2 sub-objectives, and 5 “secret” objectives, and each was associated with one round of the challenge. Once participants downloaded the game board, they worked to score as many points as possible by building a robot, completing objectives, and submitting videos of their best runs.
To complete each round, FIRST Global and Filament Games streamed a video broadcast of all participants’ challenge runs, complete with announcer commentary and scoring for every team.
⚙ Scoring ⚙
In the game, quantitative results were generated during the team’s run and include the following criteria.
In addition to the game-generated results, our expert judges reviewed team submissions and scored them based on the following qualitative criteria and detailed judging rubric.
