we have an interesting competition each year that you thatt your club members might find interesting. We call it the TableTop Challenge. It is divided into the following 3 phases:

  1. Have your tabletop robot go from one end of the table to the other without falling off.
  2. Find a cube on the table and shove it off the table. The robot also must not fall off the table.
  3. Find a cube on the table and shove it to a goal at the end of the table. The robot also must not fall off the table.

Each phase is conducted 2 months apart as to give members time to work on their bots to accomplish the tasks. There is no regulation on the cube dimensions nor what is considered a goal. Most people use a shoebox taped to the end of the table but other people have used their imaginations and come up with other configurations. All in all it is a lot of fun and we have a big turnout each year for these challenges. Not that this is a challenge not a competition. I recommend this to clubs and individuals alike.
