This tournament, which was supervised by the YU Robot Project Team, was held at the Robot Hall lobby at 1 p.m. on the 8th. A total of 72 students in 24 from seven schools (departments) of the YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering that is participating in the PRIME Project participated.
This tournament, which was supervised by the YU Robot Project Team, was held at the Robot Hall lobby at 1 p.m. on the 8th. A total of 72 students in 24 from seven schools (departments) of the YU College of Mechanical and IT Engineering that is participating in the PRIME Project participated.
The participating students teamed up into groups of three and competed in a 3 on 3 robot soccer tournament. Each match was comprised of two five-minute halves for a total of 10 minutes, and teams that were disqualified in the tournament participated in the ‘Robot Maze Finding’ competition.
The ‘YU RoboCup’ that YU held for the first time this year is a robot soccer tournament using ‘balancing robots’ that have two wheels. Students make their own balancing robots by integrating mechanical, electronic, electric, software and wireless communication technologies.

To help develop capacities of students and for the smooth progress of the tournament, YU offers pre-training on how to assemble robot kits, code software, and on wireless communications.
YU President Sur Gil-soo said, “By having students make and operate balancing robots that integrate various disciplines and IT technologies will help improve their problem-solving skills in technology convergence.” He added, “YU will develop various curricula and programs so that students can gain inter-disciplinary capacities and practical knowledge for the oncoming fourth industrial revolution.”
