2025 BEST Robotics Competition
🤖 The Challenge
The 2025 BEST Robotics challenge immerses teams in a world inspired by artificial intelligence. Robots are tasked with acting like analysts—collecting information, unlocking opportunities, and building smarter systems.
At the heart of the game are Factoids, the information pieces scattered across the field. Teams must design robots that can gather, release, and use these factoids to complete critical tasks: opening Wall Street Dispatch Gates, training neural network nodes, and ultimately selecting the correct AI model. Each factoid represents a piece of knowledge, and success depends on how effectively teams transform raw information into intelligent outcomes.
