[5] Teams were tasked with identifying a problem that can occur in the human body and creating an inventive solution.

In each 2+1⁄2-minute match, a team competes on each field with their robot to earn up to 400 points manipulating the mission models.

One of the mission models, the Mechanical Arm Patent, straddles both fields in the center.

This model can earn points for either team, or both in the rare circumstance of simultaneous triggering.

[2] All 11 are worth 5 points each anywhere on the field, but are removed every time the robot is touched outside of base.
