Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge

In the past few years we have seen a lot of evolution in robotics due to the different challenges and prizes that have been established. In fact, challenges such as the DRC (DARPA Robotics Challenge) is very stimulating for research teams and pushes them to innovate, bringing new features to their robots and encouraging them to perform at their best. And let's not forget that some competitions have big prize money that can help a research lab with funding its whole research budget (which can also be a good source of motivation). Now another robotics contest will add to the excitement: The Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge.
