RoboRunner 2.0 marks the continuation of the highly successful RoboRunner event from the previous year. Teams were tasked with the challenge of conceptualizing, designing, and constructing a rover that could adeptly navigate diverse obstacles and terrains. Representing diverse colleges of Hyderabad, many teams eagerly participated in this captivating competition.

Teams were judged based on the number of obstacles they crossed, with the freedom to skip certain challenges. Penalty points were assigned for events like the bot deviating outside the designated line or teams physically picking up the bot. Noteworthy was the strategic decision of many teams to bypass the Ball Pit, while the second-place team distinguished itself by successfully navigating this particular challenge. Additionally, several teams opted to skip the steep climb of the ramp, contrasting with the first-place team’s decision to tackle this obstacle, proving instrumental in their overall victory.
