Winning teams of 2017 will be invited to the World Finals in Shanghai, China. In this year, more than 100 participants attended this fantastic and positive competition.

In the competition site, the robots created from the participants became pitmen to achieve the task about exploiting mineral, architects to constructing railway, and industrial workers to transporting cargo. These tasks illustrate the outstanding imagination and creation of participants.
