ROBOCUP 2023
Mel Maria has a high standard in the field of Robotics and experience at Robocup competitions. Mel Maria Robotic Teams took to the stage last weekend to compete in this years Robocup competition hosted at All Saints College. The competition took place over two days. Day one involved the qualifying performances for the State competition on the Sunday.
On-Stage challenges teams of students to design, build, and program robots to perform. This performance can be in the form of a dance in time with the beat of the music, or a theatrical presentation. Teams are scored on their performance and their technical interview, including a technical description paper.
Mel Maria CPS entered three teams in the Open Section of the competition. All three teams made the final consisting of 7 schools, three of which were secondary colleges. The three secondary colleges received the 1,2 and 3 places in this competition. Our students did extremely well considering some of the students they were competing against were Year 12 students. This shows the standard of our primary students; their builds were sophisticated, highly engineered robots and their performances beautifully polished.
