Divisions
1 – Open Rescue Maze
In this division, teams design, build and program their robots to compete in Rescue Maze, following the Rescue Maze Sprint rules as above
2 – Open Rescue Maze (Standard Design)
This divisions operates using the same rules/course as Open Rescue Maze, however, teams will build their robot in either EV3 or Spike Prime following the below instructions, and then submit their program to us, which will we run on the relevant robot design. These divisions is most suitable for teams who do not have access to physical robots, as they can simply program to suit their choice of Standard Design, and then submit this to us for running on the courses.
Robots can be programmed in the current or previous generation EV3 software, graphical Spike Prime software, or EV3Dev.
