Robot Competitions with Rings and Chains Will Begin in February in Brasilia (DF). Students Compete for Prizes. #Launch #Season #Brazil #News #DF

Robots are increasingly present in various segments of society, from industry to domestic life. With constant advances in technology, the presence of robots has become even more common, optimizing processes and bringing innovations to different areas.

Robotics in Brazil: Robot Competitions Will Have a New Theme in Brasilia (DF)

The most advanced modality of the competitions, with robots weighing around 56 kg and 1.5 meters in height, will have the theme GROWING, within the universe of art. A total of more than 3,500 teams from various parts of the world will compete. In Brazil, the competition, organized by the Social Services of Industry (SESI), is scheduled for February 28 to March 2 in Brasilia (DF).

Automatons and New Trends: Robots Will Face Musical Challenges

The highlight of this year and the great novelty are the rings, which will represent musical notes. They should be thrown or placed on the speakers, and at the end of the match, the robots need to ‘take the stage’ and hang on the chains.

The category is known as the robotics olympics, as it combines elements and the adrenaline of sports with engineering and technology. High school students design, assemble, program, and pilot industrial-sized robots to complete tasks in an arena approximately the size of a volleyball court.

Prizes and International Recognition in Robot Competitions

With the announcement of the challenge, teams begin building and programming their robots. However, the chief judge of the evaluation for the Regional Brazil 2024, Silas Vergilio, reminds of the awards that require prior submission – and therefore also deserve the teams’ attention. They are

– Woodie Flower’s Award

The award, which honors one of the founders of FIRST, is evaluated by a committee from the United States and, therefore, it is extremely important that it be submitted in English. Deadline: February 8.

Competitions and Technological Innovations: Highlight on International Awards

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

Without wheels, iron, or machines, teams of up to 32 men would have dragged 2.3-ton blocks over wet sand up a ramp embedded in the pyramid itself, raising the structure in 20 to 27 years, according to a new computer model that reignites a millennia-old debate.

$786 million bridge becomes subject to technical alert after engineer points out risk in deep piles used in the foundation over the Derwent River in Tasmania

The scientists did not expect it, but they found fossils of mysterious species in a cave among volcanic ashes over 1 million years old, revealing an ancient history.

Six 400,000-year-old teeth found in China contained a protein that was believed to exist only in the mysterious Denisovans: the discovery reveals that Homo erectus interbred with this extinct relative and left a genetic trace that still lives in human populations today.

Why didn’t oil reach $150 even after three months of the Strait of Hormuz being closed?

Why are people parking hundreds of telescopes worth more than $10,000 in the middle of nowhere?

China raises an alert in the military industry by producing parts for the J-20 fighter jet in a nearly human-free factory, where AI, robots, and autonomous vehicles cut more than 80% of manual labor and double efficiency.

While stadiums in Brazil need hours to cover the field, Tottenham in London transforms a 9,000-ton natural grass field into an NFL arena in just 25 minutes with unprecedented technology.

How does Brazil manage to deliver 13 gas cylinders per second?

While school construction still relies on months of traditional masonry, in Qatar two 50-meter 3D printers will build entire schools in concrete with machines the size of a construction site.

While many footbridges only serve to cross avenues, in Tehran a 270-meter bridge transforms into a suspended square with three levels, connects two parks, and even passes over a busy highway.
