Who is this for?
The RoboCupJunior Rescue Line competition consists of two sub-leagues - primary and standard, age 9-13 (beginner group) and age 14 to 19 (intermediate to advanced group). ResQ is designed for beginner and intermediate level students who are competing. If you're a first timer, or just unsure on how to start your design, this kit is for you. It is easy to use, customizable, and cost-effective!
How to Start
How to Start
1. Understand the build of the kit robot. Look over the parts and the general design.
2. Based on the Parts List, gather all the materials to prepare for building. Purchase any necessary parts and print out the 3-D modeled components. Make sure to test the parts before building, like checking that motors, sensors, and boards work as intended.
3. Follow the instructions and assemble the base robot plus any add-ons. Make sure everything is fastened tightly!
4. Carefully wire all of the electrical components. Double-check the connections before supplying any power.
5. Run basic tests (like motor movement). Make sure data is coming from all sensors.
6. Begin tackling the Rescue Line Challenge! Make a thorough project plan with tasks and their deadlines, and do your best to stick with it. You may want to make changes to the robot (like using different sensors), and that is OK. Make sure that after each iteration, your design is thought out properly before testing.
As you start coding, take a look at the coding guides to help you get started.
