The robots participating in this competition are completely autonomous, controlled exclusively by the onboard computer, using the information obtained by many different sensors. These robots were designed and built by undergraduate students in Computer Science, Information Systems and Control and Automation Engineering in the context of the Introduction to Robotics course offered by the Department of Computer Science/UFMG in the 1st semester of 2014.
The competition was covered by the Globo Minas network, and was exhibited in regional television news on 3rd June.
