The first all-Russian competition, the Medoyed Cup, for robot combat in the 450-gram weight category, was held at the SPbPU Polytechnic Tower Robotics Laboratory.
They were organized by the Polytech Tower team, which included staff and student activists, including members of the "Omnivores" robot combat team—winners of last season's "Battle of the Robots" international championship.
Eleven teams from various regions, including Irkutsk, Belgorod, and Pushkin, took part in the competition. Teams from Polytechnics also competed: ALT from the Polytechnic Tower, CML-Energy, and CML-Aviatravaga from the Digital Engineering School.
The competition was judged by invited experts from the world of robotics and robot fighting: Artem Yumashev (captain of the Daddy Bots 110 kg Robot Battle team), Petr Kravchenko (founder of the Energy team, 110 kg Robot Battle), and Vladimir Kravchuk from the Omnivorous team.
Despite their small size—robots in this category are also called "ants"—the battles were engaging, sometimes even exciting. Teams used a variety of weapons, including classic vertical and horizontal spinners, a flipper, and a circular saw. The arena also suffered some damage: these little guys easily chipped the plywood and scratched the protective plexiglass protecting the pilots and spectators.
After intense battles, the Superro team with the Samorez robot from Belgorod won, with the CML-Energy team in second place and the Tekhnokamikaze team in third.
