The Kibo Robot Programming Challenge is an educational program in which students solve various problems by programming free-flying robots (Astrobee and Int-Ball) in the International Space Station (ISS). The Kibo-RPC will inspire students to develop their educational and professional goals to a higher level. Participants will have the opportunity to learn cutting-edge methodologies and hone their skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through this program.
In this competition, 1685 students from 13 countries and regions participated. Singapore is represented by SST 1, in a 10-nation grand finals, comprising of teams from Australia, US, UAE, Malaysia, and Thailand.
NAGARAJAN VIMAL BALAJI, SHAUN CHUA ENQI, and TEH TIAN CHENG from S2-08 represented Team Singapore.
The game play was to hit as many targets in the International Space Station in the shortest time available, before returning into the hands of the astronaut.
The process in which our robots (Astrobee) performed can be found in the Youtube recording on the International Space Station: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBKVAojl0GQ
