World Cup Alliance

Team 2903T (PNBHS, Lower North Island, New Zealand)

We’re looking for an alliance partner for the upcoming Robotics World Cup. This is our 20-point Skill entry:

This was a few days ago. Since then we’ve improved a little and hope to score a few more points if we get another chance at a skills attempt.

As for the robot itself:
-It’s built for competition, very stable and hard to tip if jostled. (Of course this limits it in the skills competition, but it is better for 2v2)
-It’s built reliably/strongly: It won’t fail easily.
-Specializes in isolation zone, but could also work in the interaction zone.

If your team is interested, leave a message here or contact us at: thefab4@xtra.co.nz

If at all possible, you should try to make it up to auckland this weekend; we’d all like to see you guys and it’d give you a chance to talk to people (and them to you) about alliances. From what I’ve heard, most of the teams are planning to make their final decisions at Pinehurst.

Really sorry - there is no way we can get to Auckland this weekend! We do have a good robot and are an experienced team. We have been to the Worlds twice and have learnt that you need ‘enough’ speed, a solid, reliable robot and a variety of skills - we have all that. From our video you will see what we can do and we hope that the Auckland teams will consider us.

will you be coming up to auckland at all in the next week before the comp starts?

do you have vids of your bot actually competing in a physical scrimmage??

My schools B team are currently looking for an alliance and they are currently updating their competition bot if you’re interested

What is this for?

The “robotics world cup”

A competition being held in new zealand from the 11th to the 13th of october.
not a world champs as such but the winning teams get automatic qualification to the worlds and win a prize of 10,000NZD

How much is that in US Money?

I see, thanks for letting me know.

7,545.00 usd :stuck_out_tongue:

The two qualified teams from our school have decided to go together, 2903T and 2903R. Thanks to those who replied.

That’s a lot of money… Wish we had that in IN.

aight, awesome.
Best of luck to ur team and see you at the comp!!! :smiley:

@bot-e-builders:
the reason we are holding this comp is because of the Rugby World Cup.
venues are open and the opportunity is there so why not grab it? xP

We don’t usually have events like this (this is the only time I know of that we’ve held something like this)
However, I could be wrong :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for making this clear.
