follow.
• While following the line the LFR will face curved lines, round loops,
intersections, right angles acute angle, line gaps, bridge, zigzag ,object
(2nd round).
• It is not allowed for the LFR to bypass any checkpoint. But if team

Result :
Let,
• S = Total Score
• A= Total points earned by autonomous
bot
• T= t - total time taken
to complete the run
• P= Total penalty
• Therefore, S= A + T -P
• Timer point = T (total) – T (calculated)
• Here, T (total) =the total assigned time
in seconds.
• For Primary round, it is 300 and for
Final round, it is 420.
• T (calculated) =the total time taken by a
