比賽期間，教練應注意隊員的健康和安全。 教練不得在比賽進行時與其參賽隊員進行戰術溝通，違者將給予全隊黃牌警告，累計兩次黃牌參賽隊伍將被強制離場且取消評獎資格。 所有參賽隊伍比賽期間應自行安排午餐和飲料，但不允許在活動場地內進食。每天離開場地時，請將所有垃圾帶走。 如果造成任何設施損壞，參賽隊伍及其所屬學校需負責賠償。 參賽者不得以任何形式干擾其他隊伍的設備或比賽進程，包括但不限於使用聲波干擾器、遮擋感測器視野或故意製造氣流影響飛艇飛行，違例者的隊伍將被取消比賽資格並立即離開比賽場地。

為了不影響比賽期間的供電系統，請不要在準備區為與比賽無關的電子設備（如手機）充電，違者將被取消資格並須承擔應急費用。 午膳期間，場地將暫時關閉 若對公佈結果存疑，需在該環節公佈後30分鐘內，由隊長或教練向評審委員會提交書面申訴。

Guidelines

All participants must bring their student card or a valid document to confirm their group (secondary / university) for entry into the competition waiting area. Participants who belong to secondary school division must wear school uniforms or sport attire; those without uniforms will not be allowed to enter the competition area. All team members must wear safety glasses during the competition. Each team will be assigned a working table for preparation purposes. All blimps must pass an inspection before the competition, covering dimensions, structure, safety labels, and the hardware/software used (please refer to the official technical handbook for details). Once passed, the inspection label must remain intact. Any damage, alteration, or removal will result in disqualification. All team members must follow the instructions of referees and staff. Obstacle size, shape, and layout may vary during the competition. All teams must bring their own laptops and related gear (e.g., extension cords, chargers), ensuring compliance with technical specifications. During the competition, all team members should be responsible for protecting their equipment and properties.

During the competition, coaches should take care of their team members’ health and safety. Coaches are not allowed to communicate tactics with their team members during the competition. Violators will receive a yellow card warning for the entire team. Accumulating two yellow cards will result in the team's mandatory ejection from the competition All teams should arrange their own lunches and drinks during the competition; however, eating is not allowed in the Hall. Please take away all litter before leaving the venue every day. Teams and schools are responsible for compensation if they caused any facility damage. Participants must not interfere with other teams' equipment or the progress of the competition in any form, including but not limited to using sound wave jammers, obstructing sensor views, or deliberately generating airflow to affect blimp flight. The violating team will be disqualified and must leave the competition venue immediately.

In order not to affect the power supply system during competition, please do not charge electronic equipment which is not related to the competition in the preparation area, such as mobile phones etc. Offenders will result in disqualification and bear for contingency cost. During lunch break, the venue will be closed temporarily. If there are doubts about the announced results, a written appeal must be submitted by the team captain or coach to the judging committee within 30 minutes after the announcement of the results

比賽形式

本次比賽分為兩大項目、兩個組別（中學組與大學組）。

比賽一為「障礙飛行賽」，中學組參賽隊伍需以遙控操作方式控制飛艇，在限時內繞過障礙物完成指定路徑；而大學組則需自行開發基於視覺的自主飛行控制程式，利用飛艇上的相機與標籤識別技術，實現自主導航避開障礙並完成賽道。

比賽二為「物件運輸任務」，中學組參賽隊伍需操控飛艇掛載物件，並將其投擲至指定的目標區域；而大學組需開發自主飛行與投放演算法，使飛艇能自動完成物件的準確投放任務，無需人工干預。

評分準則

障礙飛行賽的評分標準以成功通過的障礙數量為主，若障礙數量相同，則以完成時間最短者勝出。物件運輸任務將根據準確度（即距離誤差）與效率（即完成時間）進行綜合評估。此外，飛艇設計中的創新性與功能性也會作為額外的加分因素。

Competition Formats

This competition consists of two main tasks and two divisions (Secondary School Division and University Division).

In Competition 1, the "Blimp Race with Obstacles," teams in the Secondary School Division will manually control the blimp using a remote control to navigate through obstacles and complete the designated track within the time limit. In contrast, teams in the University Division must develop vision-based autonomous flight control algorithms. These algorithms should utilize onboard cameras and tag detection to enable the blimp to autonomously avoid obstacles and navigate the track.

In Competition 2, the "Object Delivery Task," teams in the Secondary School Division will mount an object on the blimp and manually control it to drop the object into a designated target area. Meanwhile, the University Division participants must create autonomous flight and object-dropping algorithms, enabling the blimp to accurately deliver objects to the target area without manual intervention.

Scoring Criteria

The Blimp Race with Obstacles will be evaluated based on the number of obstacles successfully cleared. In the event of a tie, the shortest completion time will determine the winner. The Object Delivery Task will be evaluated based on delivery accuracy (distance error) and efficiency (completion time). Additionally, the innovation and functionality of the blimp’s design will be considered as bonus factors in the scoring process.
