Game Overview

Working together, a teleoperated robot and an autonomous robot collect balls and compete in the number placed in the goals. Orange balls must be placed in the goal with a human figure, while silver balls must be placed in the goal with a robot figure, making accurate image recognition important. A Go2 quadruped robot may be placed at Start B, and the teleoperated robot may start on top of it.

Advantage: the autonomous robot may carry additional balls equal to the number collected in the Cyber World game using Go2.

Scoring

• The placement of the human and robot figures on the goals is determined randomly for each match.
• An orange ball in the human goal and a silver ball in the robot goal each score one point.
• If each goal contains only balls of the correct color, the score is doubled.
• The team with the higher score at the end of the match wins.

Rules

• The contest is a head-to-head match between two teams and lasts 3 minutes.
• The autonomous robot moves in Zone S and begins with one ball of each color plus any advantage balls.
• The teleoperated robot moves in Zone W and may travel over the blocks, but may not directly touch Zone P.
• Robots must meet size limits at the start of the match.
• Robots are built from the common kit (40 types of materials) and additional purchases totaling no more than 2,000 yen.
