Our network member, UNSW Robotics and Mechatronics Department, has officially launched its 8-week Sumobots Robotics Competition — unofficially the largest student-run robotics competition in the southern hemisphere!

This year, over 300 students from multiple universities and disciplines have signed up to design, build, and battle their custom-built sumobots. The competition will culminate in a live knockout finale on August 1, followed by an Industry Night Trade Show — open to all companies and free to attend.

This initiative is completely extra-curricular, with no course credits offered — showcasing some of the most motivated and proactive Mechatronic Engineering students at UNSW.

Interested in learning more or attending the finale? Contact: mechatronics.unsw@gmail.com
