The Innovation, Design & Engineering (IDE) Competition Series, consisting of the IDE Challenge and IDE Robotics, is a joint collaboration between Nullspace, Nullspace Science, Anglican High School, Anderson Secondary School and Dunman Secondary School. This year’s edition will be held at Anderson Secondary School on the 16th of March.

This year, there will be two categories – IDE Challenge and IDE Robotics – to cater to different groups of students.

IDE Challenge
This is a hands-on competition targeted at Secondary Two and Three students. It aims to challenge participants to design, innovate and build a mechanical solution to a task which will only be revealed atthe start of the competition. In a team of four, students will have to work together to come up with the most effective design to accomplish a certain task under limited time. Much of the challenge itself will depend on the students’ ingenuity, experience in design and construction, and ability to apply scientific knowledge.

IDE Robotics
Previously known as RoboZone or E4 Cluster Robotics Day Camp, IDE Robotics is a platform for robotics enthusiasts from schools across the nation to pit their skills against one another. This competition comprises both Primary School and Secondary School Categories, and will require students to think on their feet to overcome a mission playfield under a limited amount of time. In addition, it serves as a training opportunity for teams participating in the annual National Junior Robotics Competition (NJRC).

Nullspace is proud to be the collaborating organiser of Robozone 2011 held at Anglican High School on 5-6th July 2011.

Robozone 2011 is a 2-day non-residential Robotics Camp held annually for E4 Cluster Schools (Primary & Secondary) students that enable them to learn how to build and programme robots using The Lego Mindstorm NXT Robotics System. 

We had received overwhelming positive feedback from the participants of the camp and seek to make it a larger and more exciting platform for participants to share robotics knowledge and experiences in the next edition of Robozone.

Open to all local schools, National Junior Robotics Competition (NJRC), the largest robotics competition in South East Asia, will be held for the 13th time this year. Every year, the NJRC revolves around a specific theme in which the students have to do a research based on the theme to compete during the Presentation week. For the year 2011, a competition was held to gather ideas for the theme.

We would like to congratulate our client school Chua Chu Kang Secondary School for submitting the winning entry titled “Domestic-Bots”. For their creativity and efforts, they have won themselves 2 Lego NXT sets.

The 13th edition of NJRC will be held at the Singapore Science Centre from 5th – 9th September 2011.

What an incredible year this has been!

Significant expansion of our client base, new milestones, fruitful collaborations and to top it off, stellar performances in competitions and tournaments by our client schools.

Some of this year’s highlights for Nullspace include our involvement in an overseas project at Abu Dhabi, where we were engaged by Singapore Science Centre and RedFilo Pte Ltd to showcase and provide Lego Mindstorms robotics training to children aged 5 to 14 years, as part of an educational exchange between Singapore and United Arab Emirates, in conjunction with a large scale exhibition “Summer in Abu Dhabi 2009″. A Nullspace trainer was deployed at Abu Dhabi for one and a half month for this event.

Another notable milestone would inadvertently be the achieving of the coveted Championship Award in NJRC by Bukit Panjang Government High School. As I am writing this, the Championship Award winning team from Bukit Panjang Government High has just completed their all-expenses paid US tour(courtesy of Singapore Science Centrefor winning the competition), as well as a successful stint representing Singapore for the World Robot Olympiad ’09 in Korea just a month ago.

With this year almost over, it’s time to plan for 2010, and I must say it is looking very promising indeed. The research and development work done throughout this year has proven invaluable in providing us with ways of further improving quality in areas such as training content, student development, as well as the designs of robotics platforms we are working on.

Armed with this new knowledge we will be able to bring you a number of new services and products in the coming year. Services and products that will surpass your expectations not only with their quality, but also with their value-addedness. And that is not just a marketing hype, it’s a promise!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every single one of our trainers and staffs for their loyalty and dedication throughout the year.

Finally, on behalf of all the Nullspace staff and myself, I would also like to extent my deepest gratitude and thanks to all our clients for their belief in Nullspace.

Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas and a productive and joyful year ahead!

Warmest Regards,

Jasper Loong
