ABOUT THIS EVENT
Robotic sumo is a competition where two robots, known as sumo-bots, attempt to push each other out of an arena using sensors, clever programming, and innovative design. The arena for the contest is a 4-foot diameter circle, and the time given for each round is 3 minutes. Your goal is to create a sumo-bot that can push its opponent out of the arena before being pushed out of the arena by the competing sumo-bot!
Join us for a fun and friendly competition! Bring your Lego-based sumo-bot to the tournament ready to go, or join us for a workshop several weeks prior to the event and we can help you build your bot. We can even provide you a bot rental if needed.

All proceeds benefit Full STEAM Ahead Carolina, a Yancey County non-profit offering robotics programs for Yancey and Mitchell counties.
