Hey, COVID-19 😱 postponed again our PiWars competition to the end of June 2021.

As hinted at the beginning of 2020, our robo-hopes for PiWars 2021 hinge on the Sphero’s RVR design.

It’s old news by now, Team unPi got automagically accepted and later confirmed for PiWars 2021 at Home plus allowed to represent both Romania and Finland in this small robotics competition. Yay!

As countries were forced to enter lockdown due to the aggresivity of the new COVID-19 virus, the Raspberry Pi Robotics Competition PiWars was forced into a virtual event for 2020, where particpant teams would submit short videos (max 6 minutes long) about their robots, their tactics and especially their progress.

After a long(er) winter break, and somewhat continuous shopping spree – for components and especially for small robots or chassis able to compete in PiWars 2020, we are back blogging – eager to show you some of our [past] contenders, and especially their pro’s and con’s.

By a strike of beginner’s luck,

As of October 1st 2019 unPi is registered as an NGO/non-profit in Romania.
