Students fly the green flag at world robotics contest
The nine first, second and third-year students at Davis College, Mallow, were part of a team that won out, over seven other Cork schools, in a contest that challenged their skills at building, programming and testing their robots.
But rather than a traditional ‘robot wars’ encounter in which machines set out to destroy each other, the goal is for pairs of teams to scores points by picking up sacks and dropping them in designated play areas.
