Over the four days of competition at the Alameda County Fairgrounds, 179 teams from 20 countries competed for gold, silver and bronze in 54 events.
David Calkins, who founded the Games in 2004, describes the various events, ranging from small robots powered by solar power, to the big monster machines in the combat competition -- always a crowd favorite.A Canadian husband and wife team says the competition isn't just about destroying the competing robot. It's also to prove that their concept can work."There is a lot of strategy that goes into it. Pick a bot, one, that we can build. This is our first time at RoboGames.
"We have the national competition in Brazil. This is we call the world champion," said Henrique Oliveira Silva, the captain of the Brazilian squad. He says the Brazilians are ready to defend several of its world titles in the light- and middle-weight divisions. But they know that over the past five years, the technology has improved. So they are excited to see how the competition stacks up.
"We want to see how it is going. How our robot is going. How the other robots are going. Because it is very different from here to Brazil," Silva said.
