The Brain-Computer Interface and Emergency Robotics event of the 28th China Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Competition was recently held at Harbin Petroleum University. DNUI students stood out in the national finals, competing alongside students from leading universities such as Tsinghua University, the National University of Defense Technology, and the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. They won one national first prize, one national second prize, and one national third prize, demonstrating their solid skills and innovative potential in intelligent control and human-computer interaction.

The China Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Competition (CRAIC) is China’s first major competition dedicated to robotics technology and AI applications, and is a leading example of an authoritative national-level academic competition. This edition was jointly organized by national-level academic societies and relevant institutions, earning considerable recognition for its authority and professional standards. A total of 1,357 students from 276 universities across China gathered along the Songhua River to compete in cutting-edge categories, including smart agriculture, intelligent driving, smart production-line applications, air-ground collaboration involving drones, all-terrain collaborative robots, brain-computer interface and emergency robotics, and intelligent industrial-control systems. As one of the competition’s core categories, Brain-Computer Interface and Emergency Robotics focused on frontier areas such as brain-computer interfaces, intelligent perception, emergency decision-making, and collaborative robot control. Its challenges addressed the national need for intelligent emergency management and assessed algorithm design, system integration, and simulated real-world operations through a rigorous, practice-oriented format.
