(1) FINAL SCORE = 80% of the total robot score + 10% of TDP, Engineering Journal, and Interview + 10% Teamwork.
(Rubric for the TDP, Engineering Journal, Poster, and Teamwork will be available as well.)
(2) There are 4 areas. Area 1 to 3 consists tile-based system maze-like layout (like existing areas). Area 4 (optional area) is a non-tile based system.Teams are encouraged to explore interesting simultaneous localization and mapping algorithms.
(3) Area 4 ( the non-tile based area), will have irregular shapes of objects. However, the final rule will provide minimum distance for all traversable paths.
(4) Area 4 ( the non-tile based area) is optional.
(5) Division of Areas:
Between Area 1 and 2: Blue
Between Area 2 and 3: Purple
Between Area 3 and 4: Red
Between Area 4 and 1: Green
(6) In case of Lack or Progress in this Area 4, Robot will return back to the Red start tile in Room 3.
