Robot Skills Challenge Rankings
•
For each
Skills Match
teams are awarded a score based on the above scoring rules.
•
Teams will be ranked based on the sum of their highest
Programming
Skills
Match
score and
Driving
Skills
Match
score, with the team with the highest sum being declared the
Robot
Skills
Challenge
Winner.
•
In the case where two teams are tied for the highest score, the tie will be broken by looking
at both teams’ next highest
Programming

Match
score. If the teams remain tied, the tie
will be broken by looking at both teams’ next highest
Driver
Skills
Match
score. This process
will repeat until the tie is broken
•
If the tie cannot be broken (i.e. both teams have the exact same scores for each
Programming
Skills
Match
and
Driver
Skills

), then the following ordered criteria will be
used to determine which team had the “best”
