Represents an offering by Nextlab.tech designed to introduce children and students to robotics, computational thinking, and problem-solving through structured, engaging competitions.
Nextlab.tech provides a comprehensive platform for running educational robotics competitions based on open-source hardware, ensuring accessibility, flexibility, and long-term sustainability for schools and educational systems.
The offering includes:
- Robotics kits built on open-source hardware, suitable for classroom use and competitive activities.
- A scalable digital platform for managing and running competitions, including challenges, scoring, and event coordination.
- Educational content and curricula designed to prepare children in schools, supporting both teachers and students before and during competitions.
This integrated approach enables schools to adopt robotics competitions as part of their educational and extracurricular activities with minimal operational complexity.
The platform has been proven at scale: the largest implementation has been running continuously since 2019 across 1,700 schools in South Eastern Europe, with tens of thousands of children participating every year. This long-term deployment demonstrates the platform’s reliability, scalability, and educational impact. Visit https://robo.nextlab.tech/ for details.
