The Middle Tennessee Robotic Arts Society present their sixth insectweight combat robot event: Engineered For Destruction, hosted at the Nashville Mini Maker Faire.

10:30AM: Check-in and setup

11:00AM: Safety and lunch

12:00PM: Fights start

2:30PM: Awards

All minors (<18) must be accompanied by a guardian in order to complete the on-site waiver and compete.

No flamethrowers or ICE powered robots will be permitted.

Pit tables and power will be provided, though extra extension cords and multiple outlets are appreciated.

There will be a designated grinding area, however you must be sure to bring your own safety glasses or equivalent PPE. Just like all of our other events this is a great opportunity to show Nashville what we are all about. Bring all those awesome projects you’ve been working on this year. SUMO robots, Arduino projects, Battle Bots, Line followers, Robot Arms, Virtual Reality, etc. We have the space so lets fill it. Its an opportunity for us to reach people outside the Science Center. Though we’ve been around for a decade there are still people who don’t know about the group. Lets put our best foot forward.
