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.

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

Workers were opening a new road connection near the Marginal Tietê when they found, in the underground of the construction site, remnants of locomotives, wagons, and boilers from the 19th century linked to the forgotten history of Lapa.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

China has deployed snake-shaped robots to slide along power lines, where they have already inspected over 130 kilometers of cables using cameras and sensors to detect damaged wires, worn-out parts, and overheating.

Without mortar, without water, and without mess: young people create a dry flooring system that fits ceramic tiles like a puzzle, reduces construction time, and promises to revolutionize the way floors are installed in civil construction.

A rare gas cuts through the hot springs in Zambia and reveals a deep fault that may penetrate the crust down to the Earth’s mantle.

Paper money is disappearing from Brazilians’ pockets, with the issuance of new banknotes dropping by 31% from 2020 to 2025, amid the explosion of Pix, which became the most frequent payment method for 46% of the population, while cash plummeted from 42% to 22%.

Ports without drivers and cabins already move containers like automated factories: robotic cranes, autonomous electric vehicles, and software transform giant terminals into 24-hour logistics machines.

They built an entire village of houses with their own hands made of earth and old tires, in the ecovillage Aardehuis, in the Netherlands, where 44 residents live in Earthships that generate almost all the energy, heat with the sun, and treat sewage in their own garden.
