About This Hackathon


About the challenge: The Robotech Hackathon is the annual robotics hackathon run by the IEEE student chapter at Georgia Tech. Within the allotted 36 hours, teams of four individuals race to design, build, and test a robot to complete a set of engineering goals and competition tasks. Excellent collaboration and an element of strategy will be required to maximize a team score. Teams compete in one of several tracks differentiated by competition focus and experience. Products are judged by a panel of judges on the last day of the hackathon. It is completely FREE to participate in this hackathon. We accept undergraduates, graduate students, and university students within driving distance of Georgia Tech who are able to arrange their own transportation. The majority of meals will also be provided to competitors for free; please read the FAQ for specifics. Competitors also receive a free t-shirt.
