2010 World Robot Olympiad (WRO) in the Philippines

For the first time ever, the Philippines, will host on November 6 and 7, 2010, the World Robot Olympiad. The World Robot Olympiad (WRO) is a robot competition that brings together more than a thousand schools with students and teachers from 30 different countries. Two categories are presented: one technical and another which leaves more room for creativity. The Philippines have won the right to host the competition having previously won two gold medals, two silvers and a bronze over seven years of competing in the WRO. The 2010 theme is "Robots Promote Tourism." You can find more info on the World Robot Olympiad website: www.wroboto.org
