Shocker MINDSTORMS Challenge
Little Circus (NEW)
Professional Mission
Description:
Have you ever watched a circus show?
A circus involves stunts being performed by many professionals. This year, we are
introducing a new challenge to perform a little circus with your robots.Design a robot
that can secure a goal after going through the monkey bars, crossing a ramp, and going
over uneven terrain.Does it sound interesting and challenging!!
Scoring is based on how many tasks are performed through the competition. Your robot
must begin from the start line and cross a hurdle to make each goal.
A. Tightrope walls
The robots must start from the green line and go over the surface of the monkey bars
without touching the area between the black lines marked on the board and make a goal
through the goalposts. Points are scored for crossing the hurdles even if the goal
is not secured. If the goal is secured, more points are awarded.
B. Ramp
The robots must start from the green line and go over the surface of the ramp and
make a goal through the goalposts. Points are scored for crossing the hurdles even
if the goal is not secured. If the goal is secured, more points are awarded.
C. Uneven Terrain
The robots must start from the green line and go over the rough surface and make a
goal through the goalposts. Points are scored for crossing the hurdles even if the
goal is not secured. If the goal is secured, more points are awarded. Robots can use
the white space between the hurdles to navigate and turn. The robots must fully touch
each hurdle surface to successfully complete the task. The robots can turn around
and try as many times as possible before the time runs out to secure full points.
