Individual functions are counted once.
Repeated functions will not count toward your score.
To receive credit for climbing or mounting an
inclined surface the entire machine must be on the plane of the obstacle.
The duration limit of the challenge will be 3
minutes.
Prior to running the challenge, the team is to submit
a list of tasks (script) the machine will accomplish and the number of
tasks the machine will achieve. The
judges to determine whether the robot functioned as designed and to judge
the team’s success will compare the script to the tasks the machine
actually completes. The
machine is to accomplish the tasks in the order shown in the script.
