A Carnival of Robots and Sports
The RoboSports Carnival is part of the annual Pilipinas RoboSports Tournament (PRST) — a national competition series designed to fuse robotics with sports disciplines such as racing, sumo wrestling, and even hockey.
This year’s events included BoxBot battles, Line Racing, and Track Mania, among many other categories. This competition aims to promote Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) by giving learners opportunities to design, build, and test their own robots in a competitive and collaborative environment.

Makerlab Booth Draws Crowds
Throughout the two-day carnival, the Makerlab booth attracted a steady flow of participants, coaches, and spectators eager to try out its interactive displays. The booth featured several robotics kits and projects, including Makerlab smart cars, ElecFreaks robotic kits, Acebott smart cars, robotic arms, and spiders, among many others.
Many visitors also expressed excitement over the new Makerlab X-Tank Sports, which will make its debut at the next RoboSports competition. It is a custom-built smart car that uses the Acebott car starter kit combined with its different expansion packs, like tank tracks, waterball launchers, cameras, and targets.

Trophies for Champions
Beyond the booth activities, Makerlab also made its mark on the tournament by sponsoring and producing the trophies awarded to the winners. The trophies were fully 3D-printed in-house, showcasing how additive manufacturing can create professional, functional, and symbolic pieces for events of this scale.
