Ring Leader
Lesson 1: Introduction

Introduction

In this Unit, you will learn how to play the Ring Leader Competition with your Clawbot. You will iterate on your code and  game strategy to improve the robot's performance in both driver control and autonomous challenges to score more points! Watch the animation below to see an example of the Ring Leader Competition.

In the Ring Leader Competition, your robot will compete to get the highest score!

  • Drive your robot to score rings on three different sized posts.
  • Code your robot to score rings autonomously. 
  • The team with the most points at the end of both the autonomous and driver control runs, wins!
