Abstract

In this paper we present our experiences gained from organizing a robotic contest for school childer as an adition to the "Eurobot" contest for robot builders of the age up to 30. In 2008 and 2009, we have used and compared two different approaches; based on this experience, we have set the model we believed is the most suitable for us.

In 2010, it has proved this was a proper decision.
