Analyzing this victory, Mr. Quang said that to win, the students had to make maximum effort and focus during the 3 days of competition. This competition requires programming skills, robot design skills, reasonable analysis of competition tactics and good team coordination.
"On the first and second days of competition, the team played standard tests with an element of surprise. The team did very well under pressure during the practice test, but failed in the first two rounds of the real test.
However, the students overcame the pressure and finished the first day of competition with a score of 145/147, ranking 12th out of 112 competing teams in the RoboMission group.
On the third day, with a completely new exam, in 165 minutes, the whole team had to calculate the strategy, the most reasonable running path for the robot, and program to check the accuracy for fine-tuning. Right from the start, the whole team came up with a reasonable solution and achieved top 3 in the first round.
With the psychological advantage, the students continued to perform very well in their final round and won 3rd place. Although there were many regrets, the whole team was very happy because they achieved the goal set before this year's competition," added Mr. Quang.
Tomorrow, December 4, the Hong Bang 1 team is expected to arrive in Ho Chi Minh City.
