On Saturday, 25th April, we held Virtual Pi Wars. It was an online-only competition and series of robotics talks that was attended by around 250 people over the Internet via YouTube. We wanted to collate everything into one place, so here is the collection of videos of the 28 entries.
Competitors were invited to send in 5-minute videos showcasing their robots for Artistic and Technical prizes. As well as seven, preselected judges, the live stream viewers were invited to vote on their favourites. You may view the results of Virtual Pi Wars here.
