ROBOT UPRISING 2019

We would love to see you at Robot Uprising hackathon on 11 – 13.10.2019.

Robot Uprising is a story driven robotics hackathon that takes place in Kattilahalli, Helsinki. We have tuned the whole venue into a techno dystopian alternate universe. Your goal is to build a robot and program it to survive through a large maze with as much automation as possible. You can add your own parts to your robot too so you are not limited to the kit provided by us.

You don’t need to have any special robotics experience, we will help and guide you through this fun filled hackathon! As our Track Automatisation specialist Perttu says; ”Whatever your level is, Robot Uprising bumps you up one more!”

Most schools give credits for participating in Robot Uprising too.

Apply here for the fall’s most memorable hacking experience: https://robotuprising.fi/hackathon/robot-uprising
