RoboRumbles | Robolabs May Newsletter

Greetings, Robolabs Family!


Welcome to the May edition of RoboRumbles! As we gear up for an exciting summer, we have plenty of thrilling updates and announcements to share. From our VEX AI team’s groundbreaking advancements to the launch of our highly anticipated summer camps, there’s a lot to look forward to this season. Let’s dive into all the action!

Robolabs VEX AI: Team 3303X Breakthroughs

Our AI team 3303X Xplorer has been tirelessly working on developing two autonomous robots that will compete at the VEX AI World Championship next month. The team has created a sophisticated path-planning algorithm to navigate objects around the field using a custom safe highway. They’ve also developed a multi-object detection model for scoring game elements and smart polygon filtering capabilities for interaction and isolation tasks. These advancements make our robots the first fully autonomous VEX robots that we know of! We can’t wait to see them in action.

STUDENTS EAGERLY BUILD FOR A NEW CHALLENGE

With the release of the new 2024-2025 VEX game, High Stakes, Robolabs students have been eagerly prototyping their new designs. High Stakes challenges participants to score rings on stakes, position mobile goals strategically, and climb the central ladder for extra points. Our students are diving into this challenge with enthusiasm, showcasing their creativity and problem-solving skills. Stay tuned to see some of their innovative designs!

SUMMER CAMPS STARTING JUNE 10TH

Our signature summer camps are just around the corner, kicking off on June 10! These camps are a hotspot of learning and fun, providing hands-on experiences that foster teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Spots are filling up fast, so be sure to spread the word and help more students experience the joy and challenge of robotics this summer. Each camp promises a summer adventure like no other, with opportunities to build, program, and compete in exciting robotics challenges.
