Robobrawl is an annual combat robotics event consisting of 3lb, 12lb and 30lb robots that takes place each year in late March on the University of Illinois campus. The event consists of a tournament over two days where each team battles for dominance. The current format consists of combat robots fighting in a 16′ x 16′ arena, with 12lb and 30lb teams going through a modified Swiss bracket and 3lb teams fighting in a 2v2 alliances-style event.
Our event encourages inter-disciplinary engineering collaboration in order to challenge all comers in both design and manufacturing skill. Through this challenge, participants will grow and develop the skills necessary to become well-rounded engineers.
