2013 Love Late Action
Please keep this in mind: if you love the elderly, you will also become an elderly person. The Action Late Challenge touches on ideas that affect everyone, directly or indirectly, currently or in the future. Old people want to be independent and do what they want when and how they want; they want to be productive, feel needed, have a sense of accomplishment, and have fun; they want to not be lonely and stay connected with family and friends.

Care for the Elderly
and memory will be lost, and hearing, vision and other functions will decline, which is inevitable. Health problems creep up and loved ones pass away. What can we do with new technology?
In the robot competition of "Operation Love Night", you and your robot will be involved in some challenges and activities about being independent, capable, and not lonely. Some things do not require the elderly to do it themselves, but some things are difficult to do and some things are easier. Pay attention to what is difficult about those things, design your robot to do those things, and imagine what innovative technological designs you can make for your beloved elderly person or yourself in the future to make life easier.
Some of the problems in aging society occur without our noticing, and some are man-made. Frequent safety incidents for the elderly in recent years should cause us to pay enough attention to the issue of aging!
Food Safety 2012
The 2011 Food Factors Challenge, from 55 countries will explore the topic of food safety and examine possible contamination at our food contact points - From exposure to insects and organisms, unsterilized handling and transportation, and unsanitary preparation and storage, then finding a way to prevent or combat these contaminations. In the Food Factor Challenge, teams will build, test and program autonomous robots that they hope will use LEGO NXT to solve a set of tasks as well as food safety research, develop, and share their innovative food safety solutions. In their experience, teams will operate under the impact of the signature core values.
