Robots continue to be utilized more often in our daily lives. Therefore, robotics education continues to gain importance. At Studica, our primary focus is mobile robotics. Mobile robots are simply robots that are capable of motion. You may have heard them called AMR (autonomous mobile robots), autonomous intelligent robots, or intelligent robots. They rely on motors, sensors, and controllers. These robots typically have legs, tracks, or wheels to make locomotion possible. We know that mobile rob...

Leveraging robotics in education is a powerful tool for teaching STE(A)M concepts and preparing students with invaluable skills. Mobile robotics is increasingly important in the world we live in. In this article, we talk briefly about mobile robots and their importance for education. We will also share some solutions and resources you can use to bring robotics to your classroom.

To begin, a simple definition of a mobile robot is "an automatic machine capable of locomotion"*. Mobile robots can...

This year, after being postponed in 2020, the EuroSkills 2021 competition was held in the beautiful city of Graz, Austria. The event included over 400 competitors from 19 countries. Kudos to all who made this event such a success.

With all the added complexities of hosting an event with COVID-19 related challenges, everyone did an amazing job! Studica proudly supported the Mobile Robotics competition at this event with our Studica Robotics products and know-how. Studica Robotics is an afforda...

The WorldSkills Shanghai 2021 competition has been postponed until 2022. To address the gap until the 2022 competition, Studica Robotics empowered by WorldSkills will provide the opportunity to continue learning about Mobile Robotics in a safe and engaging manner.  We found a way to maintain enthusiasm and build momentum for the 2022 Mobile Robotics Competition. We are excited to announce the Mobile Robotics Skills Challenge!

This online challenge provides an engaging way to help competitors and students gain an understanding of autonomous mobile robotic technology through design, mechanical and electronic systems, programming, and controls. Participants will gain an understanding of the critical skills needed to pursue a career in robotics. This includes knowledge of autonomous navigation, engineering, electrical systems, computing technology, and more.

The Studica Robotics Building System offers everything you need to create big and sturdy robots of your own design. This system is ideal for the classroom, robotics teams, homeschoolers, hobbyists, enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to make their build ideas come to life. It features an affordable robotics build platform using a variety of structural and motion components. All of the components easily work together so you can create a variety of designs without needing a machine shop or special equipment. The unique hole pattern also allows for compatibility with many existing build systems.

It was an absolute pleasure to see teams from around the world compete in the Mobile Robotics skill competition at WorldSkills Kazan. Mobile robotics competitors must use logic, computer programming, and microprocessors to be successful. They also must create specifications for their robot’s capabilities, test effectiveness, and maintain quality control.

Kudos to all the competitors! You should be proud of your performance. It was impressive that each was so well prepared and ready to compete. The event itself was quite the battle. Only a few points separating the top teams, this article will give you the complete rundown of the results. Take a look at some images from this year’s competitors below.
