In ‘Robo Race’, the students got their human-operated bots to participate in the ultimate survival race. The ‘Line Follower’ race consisted of bots which were mobile machines that could detect and follow lines on a surface. The team having the best bot with the least commute time won the race. ‘Hacknation’ was a 12-hour hackathon where participants could use any technology to build their hacks, based on the identified hack themes and showcase their innovative ideas.
