1. Project introduction
1.1 Project Description
Today's society has attached great importance to the sustainable development and reuse of
resources, and garbage classification has long been an indispensable part of it. People consume
a lot of resources and generate a lot of waste. How to turn waste into treasure, waste sorting and
recycling is a good way out. Combined with intelligent robot technology, the efficiency of garbage
sorting and recycling can be improved.
The Waste Sorting Management Robot Competition requires a team of two students / entrants to
design and build a robot that can efficiently collect materials from various homes and deliver them
to recycling centers. Robots must be able to operate autonomously. Many elements can be introduced
or removed to make this challenge more difficult or easier, for example: introducing traffic, adding
buildings, reducing road size, etc.
Therefore, the contestants of this project need to maintain and develop the mobile robot body
and application according to the requirements of the topic, and fully tap the potential of the mobile
robot.

4. Scoring criteria
The evaluation criteria for this project are divided into two categories: measurement and

Mobile Robotics 13 / 25
 2022 BRICS Skills Competition
(BRICS Future Skills Challenge)

evaluation. Any judgment that can be expressed by objective data is called measurement; any judgment
that needs to be expressed by subjective description is called evaluation. Except for time, all
other measurement points are taken into the final score as the player's basic score. The score
calculation and summary score of this competition shall be reserved to the second decimal place.

4.1 Description of the scoring process

In order to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the scoring process, the scoring process
adopts an avoidance system, and each referee does not participate in the scoring of their own
players. Except for avoiding the referee, all other referees participated in the refereeing.
Before the start of the competition, the chief referee organizes and assigns the task of
refereeing. The referee without the task of refereeing shall not enter the player's position,
and shall not have any communication with his players during the refereeing process (except
during the noon break). The A/B/C/D modules are scored, and the judging process is completely
scored according to the scoring criteria.

scoring method of Judgement is as follows: 3 judges are in a group, each of them will score
independently, calculate the average weighted score, divide by 3 and then multiply by the score
of the sub-item to calculate the actual score. The difference between the judges must be less
than or equal to 1 point, otherwise the exact reason needs to be given and the score will be
adjusted under the supervision of the team leader or the referee.
The weight table of the working environment of the competition venue is as follows :

weight score Description of requirements

0 marks Workspace is always cluttered
1 point Normal working environment
2 minutes Good working environment
3 points Work area organization is excellent

Measurement scoring method: set up several scoring groups according to the module, each
group consists of 3 or more judges. All judges in each group will discuss together, and only
one score will be given after reaching an agreement on the actual score of the player in this
item. If the number of referees is large or small , another grouping mode can also be determined.

A sample table of measurement scoring criteria:

Time points (Time) scoring method: Time points are only for those teams that complete all

Mobile Robotics 14 / 25
 2022 BRICS Skills Competition
(BRICS Future Skills Challenge)

tasks in accordance with the requirements of the game, and the time is less than 600 seconds
(10 minutes). When the referee evaluates the time division, fill in the time used by the team
to complete the task on the scoring sheet, and calculate the time point in the unified scoring
system through the following formula:
队 伍 时 间 − 最快队伍时间
Team Score = 1 − × Highest Score
最 多 用 时 − 最快队伍时间
A sample time-point scoring rubric:

type most time highest Score no score

time points 600 seconds 2 Time ≤ 600 seconds Task not completed
within 600 seconds

4.2 Statistical method

After all the scoring items in the assessment are completed and all contestants confirm, they
will be reviewed and confirmed by the chief referee and entered into the system by the staff. The
total score is based on the sum of the scores , ranking from high to low. In the final assessment,
when it comes to the equal distribution of the selected places, follow the steps below:

1． If the total score is equal, the ranking will be based on the score of module
D;
2． If the scores of module D are equal, the ranking will be given priority according
to the higher scores of module C;
3． If the scores are still equal, an additional round of automatic tasks will be
played.

4.3 Robot Control Mode

Intermittent test (C2、C3) :
The robot control program is downloaded to the robot;
During the formal test, the contestants need to explain to the referee the goal of completing
the task before each test. After the referee allows, press the enter key of the laptop or the button
on the robot to start. After the task is completed, the robot needs to stand still, and the referee
will confirm it. Proceed to the next item.
Automatic control mode:
