The two-day event brings together over 40 robotics teams from more than 30 countries worldwide.
The First Robotics Competition is a robotics competition, not a robot-fighting contest. Its games are designed to be like team sports, and robots are not supposed to be intentionally harmed.
First Robotics Competition teams are guided by solid principles of teamwork, graciousness, cooperation, camaraderie and professionalism. The game is always as safe as can be ensured, and students are encouraged to be as friendly with other teams as they are with their own.
The first edition of the competition was held at the Sydney Olympic Park in March 2015.
In the previous competition, the Vietnamese team received the Rookie Inspiration prize.
