4th FIRA Competition

This time, the 4th FIRA competition involving 20 polytechnics from Malaysia and one university, that is the National University of Malaysia or University Kebangsaan Malaysia had been held in Kelantan.

As over 21 teams are involved, the competition took over 3 full days. Even if the students and lecturers were not tired, I am sure that the robots were 'exhausted' . Battery lifespans is always an issue here.

As always, latest researches and advances found in soccer robots were shared through academic discussion and presentations.

With the participation of universities from University Kebangsan Malaysia and University Malaysia Perlis (UNIMAP), the activites had moved to a more academic platform.

During the competition, Politeknik Ungku Omar had emerged champion again.

Anyway, Politeknik Port Dickson had improved; we have emerged 3rd in placing.

Hope to improve further. See you next in Kedah at POLIMAS in 2011
