Winner, Inter-School Robotics Symposium, New Delhi.

RoboKnights, the Robotics Club of Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram organised RoboKnights’14, the third edition of the inter-school Robotics Symposium on 13th December 2014. More than two hundred and fifty students from twenty-six schools from the Delhi-NCR region participated in this event, which offers a common platform for enthusiastic school students to showcase their technical skills.

Participating in technical competitions always excites me, getting the opportunity to compete with people working in the same domain makes the task even more challenging.

Got the opportunity to participate in the annual Robotics competition organised by team RoboKnights of Delhi Public School, RK Puram. In this Inter School Robotics Symposium, the main programme consisted of four competitive events, including ‘Robowars’, ‘Boat Racing’, ‘Football’ and ‘Line Follower’.

In ‘Boat Racing’, wirelessly controlled boats competed for the fastest position in the school swimming pool. The concept of this event was inspired by the Nehru Trophy Boat Race, which is held annually in the backwaters of Kerala. Secured first position out of all the participating teams.
