The entire program was hosted by Jack Melo, the same host in the last year's Tagisang Robotics. The program started with a doxology and the National Anthem led by the selected students of Rizal National Science High School. The program was opened by Dr. Filma G. Brawner, Director of DOST-SEI. An inspirational message was read by Dr. Brawner in place of Prof. Fortunato Dela Peña, the Undersecretary for S&T Services. They played a video about the past Tagisang Robotics match. The 31 schools did a cheer about their school and team after the AVP. The emcee then introduced the board of judges in the said competition. Engr. Edwin Sybingco from DLSU then explained the game mechanics and about the kit of parts (KOP). Engr. Carlos M. Oppus then discussed the finale competition guidelines. After the rules and regulations, they played another AVP about the Tagisang Robotics last year. The committee then gave the KOP's to the competing schools.
Elimination rounds would be on November 27-29, 2012. That means we only have less than three months to work on the robot.
So yeah guys, good luck! May the odds be ever in our favor!
