Robotics team wins gold at the Hong Kong Skills Competition
Four Higher Diploma students beat 38 teams with a sorting robot built from recycled parts.
A team of four Higher Diploma in Robotics and Automation students has won gold at this year's Hong Kong Skills Competition. Their sorting robot, built largely from recycled parts, separated mixed recycling faster and more accurately than any other entry.
"We rebuilt the gripper eleven times," said team captain Chan Ka-yan. The team will represent Hong Kong at the regional finals next spring.
