Muhammad Al Fatih Hendrawan as the representative of the KRI 2024 committee
said that KRI is an Indonesian robot contest organized by the ministry of education
and culture, research technology and higher education, through the Indonesian
talent development center which is formed by the Ministry of Education and
Culture to organize the Indonesian robot contest this year.
“To be honest, I was very surprised because the place is very big, a little shocked,
besides the place, the rules are also different from last year, last year there was no
checking system like this, maybe the difference is that. If it’s more exciting, yes,
this year is more exciting because it’s more festive, there are also more people.”
Said Andre one of participant from Politeknik Negri Madiun.
“The first impression is that it’s exciting because it’s my first time participating, the
message is to be more open because many people want to see the event, because
the event is good, it’s also fun because there are stands so you can watch from the
stands.” said from one of visitor.
The obstacles experienced during the implementation of the competition are also
not small, ranging from the difficulty of determining field conditions that must be
agreed upon by the jury & the entire team, electrical network disruptions that must
now be maintained and checked in detail and always be prepared for backup, always
ensuring the network is in good condition.
“Muhammadiyah will participate every year, last year there were 3 teams
participating, our robot was on the 2nd podium,” Muhammad Al Fatih Hendrawan
on Friday (5/7/2024).
