Citation preview
On August 8th of this year,
team members of The Brazilian Trail
Blazers, set off on a journey of
about 50 hours towards the other
side of the world. Team members
were selected to join the China Ro-
botics Challenge competition that
was held in the city of Shenzhen in
China.
Arriving at Hong Kong air-
port, we were very well welcomed
by representatives of the competi-
tion and our mentors that awaiting
for us. Housed and rested, the Trail
Blazers followed the travel itinerary
and met with the other teams to ta-
ke a tour by one of the Chinese fac-
tories that supports the event. After
the teams were distributed to con-
duct workshops with the Chinese
teams to teach them about FIRST
and its values. In these days, the

Brazilian team stood out among the
others, because even with the
"language barrier" as spoken langua-
ges ranging from English, Portuguese
and Chinese, we were able to work in
full partnership with the two Chinese
teams that were assisted by us. We
assist and teach all areas related to
robotics to them and at the end of
this workshop team was the first to
have a robot able to compete, ma-
king scores during the game. In the
following days, after the workshop
and before the competition, the Ur-
ban Youth Robotics Alliance – organi-
zing of China Robotics Challenge -
provided the foreign teams three
days of travel within China in a histo-
rical city of 2,000 years, Guilin. To
get there, we took a bullet train ride
that lasted four hours. We sleep in

award "Inspiration". The Chinese team
that we assist won the best position in the
ranking among beginners times, which
made us extremely happy.
Before we go back to Brazil, we
spent a few days in Hong Kong and had
the opportunity to know Macau, it was al-
so colonized by the Portuguese.
We just have to thank everyone who sup-
ported our team in this unique and won-
derful experience we had the opportunity
to participate, we could never imagine
that one day we would be helping young
people across the world. Mission comple-
ted! Or better... Mission INITIATED! We
will continue to inspire and help young pe-
ople all the globe!

at at Li River, and set off towards
Yangshou, where we visited some typical
places as West Street and caves. Mo-
reover, we watched a Impression Liu San-
jie presentation organized by the same
producer of the opening show of the Bei-
jing Olympics in 2008, among many other
activities that were scheduled by the com-
petition with the intention of introducing
China to the international teams.
Back in Shenzhen, we were ready
to compete. The competition was atten-
ded by about 30 Chinese teams and 10
international teams, there were three
days of competition where we could teach
a little more about the Chinese competi-

We had the opportunity
to lecture to students of Me-
thodus course in the Cachoeiri-
nha city. It was a very positive
experience because we had
contact with many young peo-
ple who are preparing to enter
college. Thank you professor
Luciano Arnold Leite for provi-
ding us this opportunity.

Participation in FLL course at SESI Porto Alegre
In early October we were participating in the Judges Training course at SESI Porto Alegre of FLL Robotics
Tournament.
The FLL - FIRST Lego League - is one of the modalities of the FIRST competition, the entity that organizes
the tournament we participate every year, for children aged 10 to 16 who are elementary and high school stu-
dents. This kind of competition uses Lego parts for the mounting robots, training skills as programming and stra-
tegy, because this game has many different rules.
The competition will be in November in Brazil, and this course was a great opportunity to qualify to par-
ticipate as volunteers in this great competition that will take place in FIERGS Porto Alegre.

FIRST is an acronym for Inspiration and
Recognition of Science and Technology. FIRST was
founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest
and participation in science and technology. Based
in Manchester, NH, the 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit
public charity designs accessible, innovative pro-
grams that motivate young people to pursue edu-
cation and career opportunities in science, techno-
logy, engineering, and math, while building self-
confidence, knowledge, and life skills.
The varsity Sport for the MindTM, FRC
combines the excitement of sport with the ri-
gors of science and technology. Under strict
rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams
of 25 students or more are challenged to raise
funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork.
Currently, the regional completions happen in
United States, Mexico, Canada, Israel, and
Australia.
