3.3 Mission Task Descriptions

This section provides details of the RobotX 2026 Autonomy Challenge tasks and the proficiency requirements for each round of competition. Teams are encouraged to develop a strategy to approach these tasks that best suits their SoS.

All uncrewed systems must be switched to autonomous mode to initiate start of any collaborative autonomous run in the courses.

Capability Levels

Each mission task has capabilities divided by three levels:

  • Core Capabilities: Fundamental competencies required for safe and effective baseline autonomous operation.

  • Advanced Capabilities: Competencies that reflect growth in autonomy sophistication and real-world relevance.

  • Disruptive Capabilities: Transformative competencies pushing the boundary of autonomous systems - enabling novel or mission-critical applications.
