[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The LINC+ Project Group at Gyeongnam National University announced on the 30th that it held the '2021 1st Line Tracer Robot Competition.'

This competition, organized to acquire knowledge of the Internet of Things, a core technology of the 4th Industrial Revolution era, and to understand physical computing, saw the participation of 30 students from various departments forming 10 teams, who showcased the excellent performance of the robots they built themselves.

The competition was conducted by placing robots at the starting point in Stadium 1 and Stadiums A and B, each with different courses, and having them follow a designated line to reach the destination. The times recorded at each stadium were aggregated, and the robot that arrived the fastest was selected as the winner.

The 'LineJalTajo' team (Computer Engineering Department students Kim Ju-seong, Koo Jeong-hyun, and Son Sang-kwon) won the grand prize by recording 27.26 seconds in Stadium 1 and 82 seconds in Stadiums A and B combined, achieving overall first place. The '3 dae 300 Ihae Jeopgeun Geumji' team took second place, and the 'To the Moon' team placed third.

Professor Jeon Ha-yong said, "Through this competition, participating students were able to cultivate their understanding of the Internet of Things and self-directed learning abilities for problem-solving."
