PBL

Project-based learning (ProBL) is a student-centered pedagogy in which students learn about a subject through the experience of solving an open-ended problem. Students learn both thinking strategies and domain knowledge.

Robocode Skills Challenge (RSC) was a mini project branding name for microcontroller course which is fully organized by student to create a mini event based on robot battle oriented to enhanced student programming knowledge as well as design skills in basic electronics and robotic system.

Here are a few questions that can help jump-start brainstorming:

• How can we speed up the robot?
• How might we better control of robot?
• How could we improve the design of the robot?
• How could we track and protect rival robot from winning the game?

AJK RSC'17: Death Race (JJ17)

AJK RSC'16: FOOTBALL GAME - THERATEAM (JD16)


###################THE COMPETITION RULES!!!################

1 - The robot should control by android based apps via Bluetooth connection.

2 - The robot should be programmed either Arduino or PIC Microcontroller.

3 - The robot should use a motor driver rated 2 Amp only.

4 - The robot should use a DC Motor rated 3 Volt only. (Ex. Tamiya, Polulu etc)

5 - The overall weight of the robot not exceed 1kg only. (Plastic and thick metal sheet)

6 - The battery voltage not exceed 12 Volt.
