Havoc Robotics

We love to see NHRL builders give back in such an incredible way! A $10,000 donation from Plum graduates Joseph Doerfler and Don Doerfler's NHRL winnings will go towards a new robotics club at their alma mater’s middle school.

Meet Riko Balakit, an NHRL builder and developer for Tender Claws, an LA-based art and games studio. At NHRL, Riko combines their professional work with their passion for robotics with their robot, 2FA. Riko used Unity to craft an intuitive, game-like control system for 2FA that's equipped with real-time telemetry updates so they can see important information such as battery life, mechanical stress, and navigation data throughout each match, just like how games display scores and player stats on screen. Riko hopes to use an AR or Extended Reality device like an Apple Vision Pro or Oculus Quest 3 to control a future iteration of the bot. Riko exemplifies how NHRL competitors are leveraging advanced engineering to revolutionize robotics. Keep an eye on them as they continue to innovate and redefine the dynamics of robot fighting.   #NHRL #Robotics #Innovation #EngineeringExcellence #Unity #AR

NHRL tournaments foster an environment of innovation, collaboration and STEM education. Our hands-on approach to building and rebuilding robots throughout the competition day prepares students for future careers in STEM. Check out this article that shows how important STEM education is and why it’s at the forefront of our mission at NHRL: https://lnkd.in/gPZDS28H #Robotics #CombatRobots #NHRL #Engineering #STEM #Education

Check out some #BehindTheScenes photos from our NHRL event this past weekend. Thank you to photographer David Gunn for capturing a day full of robot combat. The community came together for all-day competitions and fun for everyone.  You can learn more about our next event, the Teams Tournament on June 1st, here: https://www.nhrl.io/events #Robotics #CombatRobots #NHRL #Engineering #STEM

This past Saturday, April 20 we hosted the Round 4 NHRL tournament at the House of Havoc. Thank you to everyone who participated and showed up to support our incredible community of innovative robot builders. We can’t wait for you to see what’s in store at future NHRL events.

Meet Jacob A Hoffmann, the creative force behind one of NHRL's most formidable fighting robots: Maximizer. Our builders' innovative designs and any opportunities they have to experiment and iterate - whether it's at a makerspace, or an NHRL tournament - are part of what bring our league to life. Fostering hands-on experimentation, innovation, and skill development is essential for tackling real-world engineering challenges. Huge thanks to University of Cincinnati for investing in, featuring and nurturing talent like Jacob's, and for being a trailblazer in shaping the future of engineering. #NHRL #Robotics #MakerspaceMagic #EngineeringExcellence
