Teams had to complete the challenge in one hour,and points were awarded based on how quickly the robots completed a task. They didn't have to attempt all the tasks. To make things even more realistic,challenge organizers caused short computer-system blackouts(断电) that prevented robots and the human operators controlling them from communicating. That means teams had to program their bots to be partially autonomous (独立的) . Robots also couldn’t be attached to anything that could keep them from falling down , which happened a lot. |
