Mission format

Robots operate in a cave-based mission area using the official LiDAR point-cloud map, field perception and permitted navigation aids.

Navigation reference

The organizer-provided LED constellation is a common visible-light reference, not the only possible navigation approach.

Object recovery

The mission centers on collecting floor targets, handling the golden NFC object where applicable, and returning to the recovery zone.

Safety and inspection

Robots must satisfy event safety checks, respect wireless and cave-environment constraints, and operate without unsafe mechanisms.

Evaluation package

Scoring covers mission performance together with engineering design, documentation, strategy, progress log and mission debrief quality.

Important note

Official language
