The South Central PA Robotics Competition12.0 Competition was held at Penn State Harrisburg on November 9, 2024, with 30 competitors from local schools and organizations. Before the competition, free robot kits were provided to the high schools, thanks to the competition's sponsors. As a result, students were able to familiarize themselves with the kits before the competition.
For the first round of the competition, the students had three hours to complete six tasks, requiring the students to program their robots for various challenges involving sensing, movement, and control. The top four teams then competed in a final round to determine the winners. The final round, shown in the image at the left, consisted of a race to through a large maze.
