RoboCup Junior Committee,
Regarding the point “(A2) - Elimination of Engineering Journal and Introducing Presentation Video,” we discussed this as a team and concluded that the removal of the Engineering Journal could be detrimental in future seasons.
As a team dedicated to documenting our work, we believe the Engineering Journal greatly facilitates the understanding and connection of different areas and knowledge related to the competition. A well-maintained journal not only ensures organized planning but also supports a logical workflow. Additionally, it helps the evaluation committee identify teams that have not complied with regulations, upholding the principle that robots must be designed and programmed exclusively by team members.
Therefore, we believe the Engineering Journal should not be eliminated but rather used as a source of knowledge and sharing among teams, fostering fair play and camaraderie, but most importantly, promoting learning.
As for the introduction of a presentation video, it is a creative idea that could enhance team evaluations and would be well received as a more educational way to present our work.
Sincerely,
Sanja Tronic Team - BR
