Students from the Qingdao University of Technology team carried their team's robot onto the stage amidst cheers from the audience.
"Academician Li, Qingdao University of Technology has come prepared, bringing their 'Internal Combustion Engine' robot!"
"Yes, as can be seen from the robot's structure, its power system is the four wheels on its base."
However, it's important to note that it has tires on all four sides, unlike the tires on the sides we usually see.
This eliminates the need for turning when moving forward, backward, left, or right, greatly improving maneuverability!
"That's right, its design is very unique, like a mobile bunker!"
"Of course, this places very high demands on the powertrain integration system."
If one of the four tires malfunctions, or if there is a misalignment in their coordination,
Then it's highly likely that they'll lose motivation and the game will be over!
The rules of the game state that if one side loses motivation, the opponent is declared the winner.
Of course, you can also tear the other side to shreds!
"What are those huge blades on the [Internal Combustion Engine]?"
The cameraman broadcasting the competition focused his lens on the robot from the Qingdao University of Technology team, the "Internal Combustion Engine" robot.
"That should be the weapon based on an internal combustion engine, according to the information provided by the team."
This enormous blade, made of high-strength steel, can reach speeds of up to 3000 revolutions per minute.
They were incredibly sharp, cutting through iron like mud; I was really worried for the Lanxiang Vocational School team!
"Participation is key! Participation is key! Now, please welcome the Lanxiang Vocational School team! Their slogan is: 'For the best excavator technology, go to Lanxiang in Shandong, China!'"
"Hilarious! They really don't forget to advertise even when they're participating in a competition!"
"It looks like a dog, hahaha!"
"Can you hold out for 30 seconds? Qingdao University of Technology's sword is itching for a fight!"
"Could it be a toy dog? Where's the tire?"
Given the current level of development in the field of robotics, the vast majority of participating teams use power systems that...
They all use traditional wheeled or tracked power systems.
On the live stream screen, the Blue Ocean Team's combat robot, the "Red Wing Vanguard," could be seen.
It has neither tires nor tracks.
"Academician Li, what do you think of the robots from the Lanxiang Vocational School team?"
Academician Li Jiangang stared intently at the broadcast screen in front of him, his face full of confusion.
"It's strange, I didn't see any tires on the robots at Lanxiang Vocational School."
Didn't they carefully read the competition rules? This kind of robot can't move...
Strictly speaking, they can't be considered robots; they should be judged a loser the moment they step onto the field!
The host also found it strange, but for each participating team,
They all need to record videos in advance for review, so the reviewers shouldn't make such a basic mistake.
"Academician Li, is it possible that Lanxiang Vocational School is using the world's most advanced leg-powered propulsion system?"
"Hahaha~~~ Host, that's too funny! Let alone this kind of selection competition..."
Even if we make it to the final tournament, no more than three teams will be able to use a foot-powered propulsion system.
This is the most advanced technology in the field of robotics right now; how could a vocational school possibly have that kind of knowledge?
"But since they've already entered the competition, let's give Lanxiang Vocational School a chance to shine."
At least as a private vocational school, they have the courage to participate in a competition of this level.
That's commendable! Let's have both teams cheer each other on!
The operators from both teams placed their robots at opposite ends of the arena.
Protected by a huge bulletproof glass shield,
Two mechanical beasts will engage in a life-or-death battle inside.
The race had barely begun when the [Internal Combustion Engine] appeared incredibly aggressive.
The enormous blade began to accelerate, emitting a deafening hum.
"It seems that the Qingdao University of Technology team doesn't want to waste too much time on their opponents."
They immediately unleashed their trump card: the spinning giant sword!
"Judging from the rotation speed on the screen, it's at least 2000 RPM, and it's made of special composite steel."
"Once it comes into contact with the blade, the 'Red Wing Vanguard' is likely doomed!"
"Is Lanxiang Vocational School just a model? It doesn't even move?"
"Don't think this is a mold-making competition, right? The design is actually quite stylish, hahaha!"
It bears some resemblance to Boston Dynamics!
"There will only be two halves left soon. Look at that [internal combustion engine] blade, it's spinning so fast you can't even see the blade anymore!"
"If you don't move within 30 seconds, you're automatically disqualified. You'd better raise the white flag, Lanxiang Vocational School!"
Spectators watching the competition saw the robot from Qingdao University of Technology.
Looking at the Red Wings forwards standing motionless on the opposite side, this match is a foregone conclusion.
"The race has begun. [Internal Combustion Engine] seems to be losing patience and is moving towards [Red Wing Vanguard]."
If Lanxiang Vocational School doesn't take action soon, the competition might be over!
"The Internal Combustion Engine is accelerating!"
Just as the [Internal Combustion Engine] was about to make contact with the [Red Wing Vanguard],
The Red Wing Vanguard suddenly accelerated, easily dodging the attack from the Internal Combustion Engine.
"What?! Such fast movement speed???"
The host was stunned by what he saw.
The leg-based propulsion system is already amazing enough, but the balance system is also so perfect.
The Qingdao University of Technology team's operators did not expect that their opponents would evade their attacks so easily.
"Dean Li, this Lanxiang Vocational School is really well hidden."
"This really surprised everyone. To be honest, I never thought that a vocational school could develop a legged robot."
Furthermore, it's clear that the Red Wing Vanguard's balance system has undergone extensive data adjustments.
That's why the movements could be so rapid.
"However, the advantages of the four-wheel drive system used in the [Internal Combustion Engine] vessel have also become apparent."
No need to turn around, they simply reversed direction and launched a second attack on the [Red Wing Vanguard]!
The attack by the [Internal Combustion Engine] appeared fierce.
However, the motion trajectory of a wheeled propulsion system is too limited.
The Red Wing Vanguard simply shifted to the side and easily avoided the attack again.
"The battle has entered a fierce stage."
Faced with the high mobility of the Red Wing Vanguard, the Internal Combustion Engine felt somewhat powerless!
Academician Li, who do you think will be the ultimate winner?
"One has to admire the research capabilities of Lanxiang Vocational School, but the foot-based power system requires a large number of sensors and actuators."
In terms of electric range, it certainly can't compare to wheeled robots like the "internal combustion engine" type.
In terms of offensive power, the disparity is even greater; I still favor the [Internal Combustion Engine]!
"Wait a minute... Is [Red Wings Forward] going to go head-to-head this time?"
Faced with the third proactive attack by the [Internal Combustion Engine],
Instead of dodging again, the Red Wing Vanguard charged head-on towards the Internal Combustion Engine!
