STEM Categories
We offer challenging competitions for students ages 6 to 16. There are three competition categories, each with its own characteristics.
STEM Engineering
Age: Early Elementary: 5-8 | Higher Elementary: 8-13 | Middle School: 12-15
Team size: 6 people guided by a coach
Hardware: Elementary Microbit*
Software: Scratch, Make Code, Mind+
Maximum size: Must fit in 2x2x2m booth
Middle School: 12-15
Our category is a project-based competition. Students create their own innovative, intelligent robotics solutions related to the current theme of the season. The use of materials is not restricted, and students have the freedom to choose any construction materials. The main controller of this category is the Microbit.
On the competition day, teams will present their project and robot model to judges. The judges will not only grade the robot solution but also consider aspects of innovation and entrepreneurship.
Please take a look at the General Rules for this category for all specific rules and regulations.
STEM In Sports
Teams of 2-3 students
With a teacher's help, students will build a remote-controlled football player and participate in a football game—students who do not know each other form a team.
Competing as a team highlights the importance of cooperation.
Regular Robotics
Age: Elementary: 6-12 | Junior: 11-15 | Senior: 14-19
Team size: 2-3 people guided by a coach
Hardware: Nezha, Spike
Software: Scratch Python
Maximum size: Max. 25 x 25 x 25 cm
Characteristics: Build and program a robot that solves challenges on a field.
Regular STEM is a challenge-based competition. Students must design, construct and program an autonomous robot to solve specific field challenges. Because the field is set up randomly each round, the robot needs to be able to make its own decisions during the run.
