Welcome to the World Championship Qualifier, which will be held on February 16th at St. Mary's International School in Tokyo.
To ensure the competition runs smoothly and teams can focus on their matches, here are seven important announcements:
1. Engineering Notebooks
The judging of Engineering Notebooks will be conducted remotely. Teams are required to submit their Engineering Notebooks in advance for evaluation. Notebooks brought on the day of the event will be considered for team appeal but will not be subject to judging. Please ensure that your Engineering Notebook is submitted in PDF format by 5:00 PM on Tuesday, February 11th. To allow teams to focus on the competition on event day and to ensure fair judging, the notebooks will be reviewed prior to the event. Teams using a web-based Engineering Notebook can submit it directly from their account on RobotEvents.
2. Consent Forms
Some teams have not yet submitted their consent forms. These forms contain important information regarding safety, liability, image rights, and participation eligibility.

In this competition, the team representing Japan at the World Championship will be determined. To earn the qualification, it is essential to win the Excellence Award, which is decided by the judges.

On the day of the competition, each team is advised to prepare in advance for the interview to make the most effective use of the limited time.

この競技会では、世界大会に出場する日本からのチーム代表を決定します。出場権を獲得するには、ジャッジが決めるエクセレンスアワードが必須です。エンジニアリングノートブックの審査は事前にリモートで行い、ジャッジによるインタビューはイベント当日15分間行われる予定です。競技会当日、各チームは、限られた時間を有効的に活用するため、予め、インタビューに答える準備をしておくことをお勧めします。
