2025-2026: DECODE
2025-2026 DECODE presented by RTX Game Animation
DECODE challenges teams to design, build, and program a robot that can navigate a 12 x 12 foot field. Robots score points by completing tasks such as gathering artifacts, delivering them to scoring zones, and coordinating autonomous routines. The game emphasizes precision, strategy, and adaptability, with both autonomous and driver-controlled periods. Alliances must balance speed, accuracy, and teamwork to maximize their score while managing limited resources and time.
