An 8-hour national level robotics hackathon
RoboForge 2K26
One task, given on the spot. One team of four. Eight hours to prove it wasn't luck. Hosted at AAA College of Engineering & Technology for builders who'd rather ship something than talk about it.

Eight hours. No safety net.
RoboForge isn't a workshop with a demo bolted on. Bring your own components and models, and the task is handed to you on the spot — no pre-building, no head start. What you finish by the deadline is what gets judged, and the judges' decision is final. That pressure is the point: it's where teams find out what they're actually capable of.
