TEKNOFEST Robolig Competition

TEKNOFEST Robolig Competition is a prestigious technology contest organized in line with the National Technology Initiative vision to accelerate Türkiye’s technology-based transformation. It aims to support participants’ development in robotics, electronics, and software fields. The competition seeks to popularize the use of the local production platform Deneyap Kart and diversify its project portfolio to support individuals who create technology.

The primary objective of the Robolig Competition is to enhance the abilities of individuals across different age groups in designing robotic systems, creating electronic circuits, and developing software, while also fostering participants to become not only consumers but also producers of technology. The competition follows a league format in which teams are evaluated based on points earned from completing tasks on the course. By promoting the active use of the Deneyap Kart, the competition encourages project development on this platform and thereby supports the vision of “A Technology-Developing Türkiye.” In this context, Robolig is organized at middle school, high school, university and higher levels tailored to different age groups.

Students enrolled in middle school, high school, university (associate, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral programs) in Türkiye and abroad may participate in the competition. However, students enrolled in open education programs are not eligible. Each team must consist of active students at the educational level corresponding to the category they apply for.

The TEKNOFEST Robolig Competition serves the National Technology Initiative vision by not only enhancing individuals’ technical skills but also advancing local technology production, cultivating qualified human resources, and strengthening the electronic design ecosystem. The focus on the Deneyap Kart represents a concrete outcome of this vision, enabling the growth of local and national technological infrastructure through the efforts of younger generations.
