                            ROBO WARS : Can you win the Third  World War!!!!!!


      Introduction:

                  This MARCH witnesses the most brutal of all the Robotics competitions                
          when two combat Robots go head to head to earn the Ultimate glory!!!



      Task:

                   Design and construct a remote controlled robot capable of fighting a one on 
          one tournament.


       Specifications:
  •         The machine should fit in a box of dimension 400 mm x 400 mm x 400 mm    
  •   at any given point during the match. The external device used to control the  
  •   machine or any external tank is not included in the size constraint.

  •    The machine should not exceed 10kg of weight. Weight of adaptors and the remote controller   
        will not be counted.
     Robot Control Requirements:
  •      The machine can be controlled through wired or wireless remote. Refer below  
  •      for further details on battery and power.
  •      The machines using wireless remote must at least have a four frequency remote  
  •      control circuit or two dual control circuits which may be interchanged before the   
  •      start of the race to avoid frequency interference with other teams. The case of 
  •      any interference in the wireless systems will not be considered for rematch or  
  •      results.
  •      Remote control systems from other sources might be used. Remote control   
  •      systems available in the market may also be used.
  •      Nonstandard or self-made remote control systems must first be approved by the    
  •      organizers.



      Battery and Power:
  •      The machine can be powered electrically only. Use of any other prime movers   
  •    such as IC engine in any form is not allowed. On board Batteries must be sealed,   
  •    immobilized-electrolyte types (such as gel cells, lithium, NiCad, NiMH, or dry  
  •    cells).
  •    Weight of Onboard battery will be considered in the weight of the Robot.
  •    The electric voltage between 2 points anywhere in the machine should not be    
  •    more than 12 V DC at any point of time.
  •    All efforts must be made to protect battery terminals from a direct short and   
  •    causing a battery fire, failure to do so will cause direct disqualification.
  •    Use of damaged, non-leak proof batteries may lead to disqualification.
  •    Special care should be taken to protect the on-board batteries.
  •    Change of battery will not be allowed during the match.

      Weapons Systems:
  •      Robots can have any kind of magnetic weapons, cutters, flippers, saws, lifting   
  •    devices, spinning hammers etc. as weapons with following exceptions and  
  •    limitations:
  •    Liquid projectiles.
  •    Any kind of inflammable liquid.
  •     Flame-based weapons.
  •    Any kind of explosive or intentionally ignited solid or potentially ignitable solid. 5.   
  •    Nets, tape, glue, or any other entanglement device.
  •    Radio jamming, tazers, tesla coils, or any other high-voltage device.
  •     Tethered or un-tethered projectiles.
  •      Spinning weapons which do not come in contact with the arena at any point of 
  •      time are allowed.

       Arena should not be damaged in any case by any bot. The competition will   
     be played on a knock-out basis. There can be some hazards in the arena    
     (subject to change, will be notified as soon as decided).

     Criteria for Victory:
  •  A robot is declared victorious if its opponent is immobilized.
  • A robot will be declared immobile if it cannot display linear motion of at least one inch in a timed period of 30 seconds. A bot with one side of its drive train disabled will not be counted out if it can demonstrate some degree of controlled movement. This rule will also apply to any robot that becomes trapped by any part of the arena or arena hazards, including the pit.
  • In case both the robots remain mobile after the end of the round then the winner will be decided subjectively.
  • A robot that is deemed unsafe by the judges after the match has begun will be disqualified and therefore declared the loser. The match will be immediately halted and the opponent will be awarded a win.
  • If a robot is thrown out of the arena the match will stop immediately, and the robot still inside the arena will automatically be declared as the winner.
  • Robots cannot win by pinning or lifting their opponents. Organizers will allow pinning or lifting for a maximum of 30 seconds per pin/lift then the robots will be instructed the attacker to release. If, after being instructed to do so, the attacker is able to release but does not, their robot may be disqualified. If two or more robots become entangled or a crushing or gripping weapon is employed and becomes trapped within another robot, then the competitors should make the timekeeper aware, the fight should be stopped and the robots separated by the safest means.
  • Points will be given on the basis of aggression, damage, control and strategy.
Aggression – Aggression is judged by the frequency, severity, boldness and effectiveness of attacks deliberately initiated by the robot against its opponent. If a robot appears to have accidentally attacked an opponent, that act will not be considered aggression.

Control – Control means a robot is able to attack an opponent at its weakest point, use its weapons in the most effective way, avoid Arena Hazards, and minimize the damage caused by the opponent or its weapons.

Damage – Through deliberate action, a robot either directly, or indirectly using the Arena Hazards, reduces the functionality, effectiveness or defensibility of an opponent. Damage is not considered relevant if a robot inadvertently harms itself. Also, if a pressure vessel or a rapidly spinning device on a robot fragments, any damage to the opponent will not be considered "deliberate".

Strategy – The robot exhibits a combat plan that exploits the robot's strengths against the weaknesses of its opponent. Strategy is also defined as a robot exhibiting a deliberate defense plan that guards its weaknesses against 
the strengths of the opponent. Strategy can also involve using the Arena Hazards to gain an advantage.
Team Specification:

 The teams can be formed by students of the same institute or students from different institutes. A team may consist of 4 to 6 participants. Every team must have a name which must be unique. A team must have a leader who represents the team at any point of the competition. Leader will be the single point of contact for any type of conversation and clarification.



Arena

The arena will be  of 3000X3000 mm. There will be some obstacle inside the arena to bring reality.  Surface will be smooth cemented floor. Top of the cage will be open for controlling the bots.  Bots can move anywhere inside the arena.
Image of the arena will be uploaded soon.

Game Plan
Each match is of 180 seconds. Teams has to defeat their opponent in the given interva

NOTE: Qualification of a robot to next level is subjective and totally on the decision of the judges. A robot winning in a round against its opponent doesn’t guarantee its entrance into the next round. If the judges found the winner robot incompetent to enter into the next round, it may get disqualified. Judges can disqualify both the robots of a match from advancing to the next round.
