The theme of this year's Robocon competition, "Harvest Day" challenged participants to design and operate robots capable of completing tasks related to agriculture and harvesting. Drawing inspiration from cultivation on terraced fields, the Robocon Contest has developed robot tasks that depict the stages of rice cultivation. These tasks include sowing, harvesting, and transporting the harvested grains to the warehouse. The underlying message is 'Efficient cultivation brings a warm and prosperous life for everyone”.
