The WRO^® (World Robot Olympiad^TM) is a robotics competition for children and young people. There are different competition categories, but all of them focus on the design and programming of a robot. Children and young people from 6 to 19 years old can participate in the competition in teams of 2 or 3 people and an adult coach. Teamwork, problem solving and computer skills are trained – along with thrills and lots of fun!

RoboMission is the classic category of WRO competitions., where a robot has 2 minutes to autonomously solve tasks on a playing field, e.g. move objects or sort them by color. Only Lego robots may be used here.

New to Switzerland is the Future Innovators category, in which teams tackle a research task related to the year’s theme and invent a robot that can contribute to solving a real-world problem.

In Switzerland, there is also a Starter Category for children aged 6 to 10 who are making their first attempts at robotics.

The best teams in the RoboMission and Future Innovators categories qualify for the WRO World Finals or a friendly tournament.

Over 70,000 children and teens from more than 90 countries worldwide participate in WRO, giving them the opportunity to improve their problem-solving skills and understanding of technology through this challenging robotics competition – all while having a lot of fun!
