National Junior Robotics Competition Booth Design
Just this week, I participated in the National Junior Robotics Competition. Contrary to what people would think of in a Robotics competition, it has several aspects such as Booth Design, Entrepreneurship, etc.. Hence, I could utilise my aesthetics ability to contribute in these segments of the composition.

Seeking reference from my senior's design from last year, it seems as if they tied in really closely with the theme which was domestic robots. Hence, with the robolyimpics theme this year, I tied in the robotics elements with the olympic elements. One part that shows this unity the most is the Olympic symbol made using gears. Given the interconnective nature of the gears, it ties in with the encircling of the five olympic rings in forming the logo.

As the main body of the robot, I adopted the idea of using a basketball scoreboard, putting our group name, 'Huh?" in the screen of the board, along with the year. Extending from the main body of the robot is six robotic arms performing the six sports from the olympics which our robot was tasked to do in the  mission provided for our category, boxing, weight-lifting, fencing, basketball, judo and cycling. Hence it also ties in with the competition.

While not clearly visible, the orange strips on the two sides are actually running tracks made out of orange paper then delineated with maskng tape to create the track lines for the effect. Around the remaining empty spaces, we placed different lego heads with varying expressions all around as well as question marks '?' which shows our group name.

Overall, we were quite satisfied by the result of our efforts in creating this booth design!
