Competition Phases

Eligibility Phase
Where teams have to send technical report and video, then they will get the confirmation of being qualified to the next round and their score of this stage.

Classification Phase
Includes two rounds
Round 1 “first day of the competition”, the teams will compete by their robots in the minefield, to choose the qualified teams for final round.
Round 2 “the second day of the competition”, robots will compete again and give a 15 min technical presentation on a jury panel talking about their work and robot.

It's Your Turn to Compete!


Industry
Minesweepers-Industry is a special category of the Minesweepers: Towards a Landmine-Free World competition. Companies are invited to participate in this competition and demonstrate their state-of-the-art solutions and technologies in the area of humanitarian demining.
In this competition, each participating team will construct a teleoperated or an autonomous vehicle that should be able to search for surface and buried metallic/ non metallic objects of different dimensions and shapes that mimic the anti-personnel landmines and unexploded ordnances. The vehicle must be able to automatically produce a high-precision map of the detected objects without human intervention. The vehicle has to able to navigate through rough environment that mimics a real minefield.

Academia
This category is for graduates and undergraduates to enrich their experience and skills in robotics and lead the future robotics industry.
Each participating team (Max. 10 members) will construct a teleoperated or an autonomous robot that should be able to search for underground and above ground anti-personnel mines and produce automatically a map of the detected mines. The robot has to able to navigate through rough environment that mimics a real minefield.


Juniors
This category is designed for preparatory and high school students, we provide the opportunity to innovate for these young students who will change our world into a landmine free one.
Each participating team (Max. 10 members) will construct a teleoperated or an autonomous robot that should be able to search for underground and above ground anti-personnel mines. The robot has to able to navigate through rough environment that mimics a real minefield.
