From December 3 to 6, the 2020 World Robot Contest, sponsored by the Chinese Institute of Electronics, was held in Tanzhou International Convention and Exhibition Center, Foshan, Guangdong Province. Since 2015, it has attracted more than 120,000 athletes from more than 20 countries around the world, is an official event in the field of robotics with great influence at home and abroad, and has been widely praised as the "Olympic Games" of the robot industry by major mainstream media.
The 2020 World Robot Contest has focused more on high-end technology exchange, industrial technology application and market scale influence. Centering on the three major competition fields of scientific research, skills and popular science, the contest has set up four major competitions, namely, inclusive robot, BCI brain-controlled robot competition, robot application competition and young robot design competition. The graduate students including Zhou Shengbo, Han Jiaxing, Peng Yang, Qiu Bingjian and Su Yuyuan, and the undergraduates majoring in telecommunications, including Wang Quanlong, Liang Che, Huang Zhixin and Qin Hanbing, from the School of Mechanical Engineering and Electronic Information formed a team and participated in “Jingtian Cup” Autonomous Driving Challenge.
Under the guidance of Professor Chen Fenxiong and Cheng Zhuo, our team successfully entered the final after preliminary selection, and finally won one first prize and one third prize in the automatic driving competition. Nanwang Hongguang team of China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) won the second place in the autonomous driving group with the second total score.
