There are many kinds of robot competition in worldwide; one of the biggest is the Robocup. For some country they have their annual national scientific and engineering competition like Estonia does. They named their robotic competition as Robotex with their slogan “Where brains and metal meet”. This competition started in 2001 where took place in Tallinn University of Technology on November 9th. In this competition students of the university and University of Tartu should build robot that able to move along the marked track and also pass the obstacles. This Estonia robotic competition’s winner will get a massive prize of 6000 Euro with free registration.
This photo taken from massive statue of robot outside the Soviet-era synthetic rubber factory around the Sumgayit, Azerbaijan. The robot not only looks giant but massive. You could see the measurement by comparing the robot size with the electricity tower next to the robot. You could see clearly how massive is the robot size from this angle. Massive standing robot statue!
