Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students ages 9-14* engage in research, problem-solving, coding, and engineering - building and programming a LEGO® robot that navigates the missions of a robot game.
Robot Game - Teams build a robot using a reusable LEGO® MINDSTORMS® or LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime kit that they programme to autonomously complete a series of missions on a season-specific field to score as many points as possible.
Innovation Project - Teams must research and design an innovative solution to a real-world problem relevant to the annual Challenge theme.
Robot Design - Teams must explain the process of designing, building, and programming their LEGO robot.
