The organizers require contestants to use some basic equipment that is similar to international standards from the organizers, including: a basic kit of control circuits, motors, sensors, and freely apply knowledge, programming skills, mechanical structures... From there, they need to design a robot product to solve the contest's problem.
Here, the contestants made creative efforts to build unique robots and control the devices through the challenges of the competition. In the final result, the FPT3DN.Robotown team (FPT Da Nang High School) excellently won the FTC Vietnam 2023 - 2024 Championship. Accordingly, the Da Nang student group will represent Vietnam to participate in the "First Champion" Global Final round taking place in the US next April.
