2013 SRCC Game Judging Guidelines Updated Mar 8, 2013 Go to and click on [Robofest 2013] link. This PowerPoint file and related materials will be available under “Judging” section. This presentation is for all volunteers, coaches, mentors, site hosts, and team members

Based on Official Rules (v1.1) published on Jan 15, 2013 Judges’ decisions are final Game Judging

Judge Types and Roles Chief Judge 2 Judges per Game table About 20% of teams Qualify for Regional and World Championships 3

Recommended SRCC Setup Chief Judge 2 Judges / Group Timer** 3 6ft tables* covered with black vinyl 2 Judges / Group Timer** 3 tables* covered with black vinyl (*) or two 8ft tables (**) can be shared. Use also Android App. Score Keeper with Laptop/Excel Impound area

SRCC (Search, Rescue, Cleanup, and Collect Data) – 2013 Game 5  Remove (clean up) the white toxic boxes from the table  Bring the black box out of the contaminated area to Home  Measure the size of the contaminated area in square millimeters and report the number  Return to the Home Base.

2013 Game “SRCC” Animation 2 ways to watch Go to and click on “2013” link. You will find YouTube video icons. Go directly to the following link:

2013 Game “SRCC” Warm Up Video Go directly to the following link:

Playing Field Layout (Jr. Division) a : at least 20 cm b, b’, b” : at least 13 cm c : at least 20cm Min diameter: 30cm # of boxes: 3 ~ 4 Black box always on the top The circle shape is placed always on the right side of the Home base as student faces the table

Playing Field Layout (Sr. Division) a : at least 20 cm b, b’, b” : at least 13 cm c : at least 20cm Max θ : 45 degrees θ ≥ 0 # of boxes: 3 ~ 5 Black box location: unknown, but not on the bottom The size of the triangle is at least the size of the box. The triangle shape is placed always on the right side of the Home base as student faces the table

2 rounds, 2 minutes per round The Home Base location (a) will be fixed throughout the competition day The number of boxes for each round will be different Teams will be given 30 minutes after the number of boxes are given. All teams must submit their robot to the impound area when 30 minutes have expired and after their 2 minute 1 st round has been completed Rounds 10

Right after opening ceremonies, Chief Judge (or MC) will tell just the number of white boxes as well as the location of the black box to be used for each division Only for qualifying: Robot starting orientation will be announced [NEW!] 30 min timer will begin and team pit is closed; Judges/proctors will watch teams during this period to ensure teams do not receive outside help Teams can use official playing fields Practice field as well as official fields will have the official towers, but no official shapes yet. Unveiling Unknown factors and Rules during the 30 minutes

The following items must be checked when the robots are impounded – Width & Length: max. 35 cm – Visible Team ID tag on the robot During this time, official playing fields will be closed and setup with new secret black circles or triangles. b, b’, b”, c, and θ values will be given to Judges only. Impounding Robots

MC will call a team to assign an official playing field. A Judge will ask the team to explain (using hand simulation) what the robot will do to measure the area This step is to help Judges determine whether the robot actually measured the area, or simply displayed a number Verification of Measurement Method

Before starting a round, a Judge will place the tower near the center of each shape For qualifiers, the boxes will be oriented parallel to the edge of the table. (For Regional Championships or World Championship, the orientation may be at random) Whenever reset is requested, Judges will use the same tower setup How to Setup Towers

Qualifiers: Teams must use the orientation given before impounding robots Championships: Chief Judge (or Emcee) may specify which way (orientation) the robot may face using the clock direction, 10, 11, 12, 1, and 2 o’clock, from the perspective of the player. This orientation will be the same for all teams during a round, but will be different for round 1 and round 2. How to start the robot (1) 15

Can be placed in the Home Base plate (aluminum foil tape) as long as part of it is on or over the foil tape and it meets the size requirements, May hang over the edges of the table Players may pick up and modify their robot without penalty only when any part of the robot is on or over the foil tape However, the starting orientation must be the same clock direction at each restart How to start the robot (2) 16

If tower is reset Robot falls off the table (no additional penalty for pick-up) If any part of the robot is touched by a player outside of Home Base The robot must be re-started from Home Base using the same start orientation The team may (1) start without reset OR (2) request full-reset of the tower. (Red Card!) If NO reset is requested, all boxes on the robot when touched must be placed at the spot where the robot was touched Red Card (-5): max two times 17

Scoring Sheet (1) 18

Scoring Sheet (2)

Max width and length: 35cm x 35cm (May expand automatically after starting) Height and weight limitation: none Only one robot controller for each robot Any number of sensors/sensor types Any number/type of motors/servo motors Any material/robot kit may be used to construct your robot including tape, glue, bolts and nuts, rubber bands, etc. Team ID tag Robot Specifications 20

FAQs (1) Can teams adjust the height of the robot after the tower information is unveiled? Yes. Teams may need to bring additional parts. Is there a required sequence of missions? No, but “the come back to Home” task must be the last action. (In other words, when the game ends, the robot must be at Home to get the 10 points for returning home.) 21

FAQs (2) Can we ask for a reset of the tower when the robot is in action? No, only when the robot is at the Home Base. Can we ask for a tower reset without penalty when the robot is over Home Base? No. Whenever the tower is reset, a Red Card is given, if max Red Cards not given. It brought the black box back to Home. Can a player remove the box from the robot in order to try remaining missions? Yes, after getting Judge’s confirmation that the black box was saved. Give the box to Judge. 22

FAQs (3) My robot brought the black box back to Home Base. Can we ask a partial reset of the tower without the black box? No. My robot brought a white box back to Home (-10 points). Can we ask a full reset? Yes. I grabbed my robot. Can I restart my robot without the tower reset? Yes. But any box on or held by the robot must stay at the place where the robot was touched. Must the robot stop at Home Base? No. It is desirable to make it stop. A player may pick it up at Home Base without penalty. 23

FAQs (4) Do the Judges stop the clock to reset the tower? No. Can a robot still display the area after the 2 minute time runs out? Yes. Can a player reset the tower? No. It must be done only by Judges. Remember: you will be asked to restart if you touch the tower boxes. A penalty will be assessed. 24

FAQs (5) My robot fell off the table. Do I have to pick it up? Yes. Any robot that falls off the table will be given a red card and must return to home base. Do all of the cables have to fit inside the 35 cm box? No. Cables in the air may extend outside the body of the robot. The body of the robot must fit within the 35 cm box. 25

Robofest 2013 Game “SRCC” Animation Videos for Judging Practices Use score sheets to score the following game animations

Check violations carefully during the run Reset the tower per request Score after the game by observing location of the boxes and number of red cards, etc. It is a team’s responsibility to design robots in such a way that the measurement displayed on LCD can be shown to Judges. Judges at individual sites have the authority to interpret any and all questions that may arise during the competitions Judging Tips (1)

Check the orientation of the robot whenever it starts. Any violations, ask re-start Important: If the robot does not do what the team says it should do to measure the area, the measurement should not be accepted (do not write it down and the team does NOT get 35 points) Judging Tips (2)

Get signature from a team player Give the score sheet to Chief Judge After checking, Chief Judge will give the score sheet to score keeper Game Ending 29

Get secret values (area of secret shapes) from the Chief Judge Enter in the total score for each team under “Total” If no measured value is given, leave the “Measured” column blank. e and Final score are calculated automatically. Do not convert to mm 2. Enter data as is. Scorekeeper Instructions 30

Winners in each division will be decided by average scores of Rounds 1 and 2 Tie breakers: 1)Best score 2)Rerun, if needed Note that this year we are not recording time taken to complete the mission. The accuracy of the measurement will be an important factor in deciding winners. How to determine winners
