November 18-19, 2017 Highlights of World's Top Educational Educational Robotes - World Education Robot Contest (WER) 2017 World Championships kicked off at the Shanghai National Convention & Exhibition Center and nearly 10,000 from over 50 countries and regions Small players gathered, staged a fantastic summit duel.
WER is sponsored and sponsored by the World Association of Educational Robots and is mainly aimed at the international educational robot competitions for children aged 4-18 in the world. It aims to cultivate children's technical literacy and team spirit, train young children's ability to succeed (analytical skills, Innovative ability, practical ability).
As WER's influence expands, more and more children and young people from all over the world participate in WER, and the winners of WER World Championship will also bring lofty honors to themselves, schools and countries, Of the scholarship, and even directly admitted to the famous university or as an important basis for admission.WER2017 season in more than 50 countries and regions, more than 500,000 players participated in the WER trials at all levels.
Competition innovation, heaven and earth into the development of AI charm
In order to enrich the project design and implementation space of the educational robotics competition, children's imagination, creativity and programming capability are displayed in a multi-dimensional manner. In addition to the traditional building blocks education robot race (including the audio-visual training system and the CASTAC competition) , But also added mobile education robot race, flying education robot race, module educational robot race, humanoid educational robot race, underwater educational robot race and many other competitions, heaven into the earth, to develop the charm of AI.
It is worth mentioning that the contest also introduced for the first time a virtual education robot competition.On the same game, while the actual mobile education robot competition, while the virtual mobile education robot competition, there is no feeling of crossing?
These new forms of interesting project settings, so many guests praise again and again, subvert the people will be equivalent to educational robot game building blocks + programming stereotypes.
Players as young as 5 years old, refresh WER World Championship record
In the competition scene, a group of small players were especially noticeable. They were children participating in the junior competition of the mechanical innovation race. Many of these children only went to kindergarten and were only 5 years old.
These adorable children may not understand the meaning of the word 'match,' but they are serious about building tracks and working with their peers to remind each other that it is indeed an act of adults. Parents and mums are particularly excited and excited. They think it is a rare experience for children to have the chance to participate in such global competitions as WER.
Give young children more opportunities to participate, so that they can experience the joy of innovation and creation as well as the importance of teamwork. This is exactly why the Organizing Committee of this competition specially set up the junior competition of Mechanical Innovation.
First set up 'Hall of Fame', to promote the power of example
In order to pay tribute to the ever-winning players who won the WER medal, they are given top honors, guiding more children to love robots and love science and technology. The Hall of Fame was specially set up for the World Championships.
The WER organizing committee selected the 20 most representative athletes from among the winners of the WER Championships / Open Competitions in 2013-2017 and the top, second, third and first, second and third prizes of the WER World Championships, Their photos, materials, one by one on the wall in the Hall of Fame.

In addition to the competition, the organizing committee also held WERS Education Robotics Forum, WER Robotics and Frontier Technology Forum, WER Education Robot Teachers Forum, Jake Mendelssohn, co-founder of Educational Robotics, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Shanghai Future Partner Robot Co., Ltd. Scientists 恽 Weiminmin, executive director of China Artificial Intelligence Society, Professor Huang Xinhan, director of Intelligent Robotics Commission, and several senior educational robot teachers from and outside the school made relevant keynote speeches and explained the value and development prospect of educational robot in detail.
Two days passed, these lovely children experienced a lot in this battlefield and arena, also gain a lot, honor, friendship, laughter, sweat ... 2017WER World Championships ended in the children reluctantly Looking forward to meet again next year!
