Teams and Invitation — only veterans are going to wet country
Do you remember Robotour 2016 in Deggendorf? It was poring rain all day long. Maybe it is the reason why only veteran teams are coming this year. There are 8 of them: 3 German, 3 Czech and 2 Slovak teams. You can see them already this weekend 14th of September 2019 near the THD campus. Starts are planned for 9:30, 11:00, 13:30 and 15:00.

The registration for Robotour 2019 will be the same as previous year. Besides a short hardware/software description we also require a YouTube video, that shows that your robot is able to homologate. The registration deadline is 31st of July 2019.
