Next Generation Robotics Support Organization at iREX2025

The Next Generation Robotics Support Organization, known as Scramble, is excited to announce its participation in the International Robotics Exhibition (iREX2025), scheduled for December 6, 2025, at Tokyo Big Sight. Attendees can visit our expansive booth (25m x 16m) located in South Hall 3, where we will present a mini-engineering championship, along with demonstrations of our newly launched robotics and AI educational materials targeted at high school students.

Exhibition Highlights

Engineering Championship (CoRE) Mini Competition

One of the main attractions at our booth will be the CoRE mini competition, aimed at fostering engineering skills across all age groups. Set on a field identical in size to the main championship, this thrilling event will feature robot battles in a 2 vs 2 format on a 12m x 8m arena. Don’t miss the chance to witness these epic showdowns!

Two leagues participate in the CoRE event: the first league for advanced competitors and the second league targeting beginners. For iREX2025, we are thrilled to host six teams comprising three from each league:

First League Teams:

• - MA-KING (2025 Overall Champion)
• - 大ロボーズ (2024 General Victory Winner)
• - でんとつーとびーばー

Second League Teams (all junior high and elementary school students):

• - 港アルバス
• - シュヴァルツ羽田
• - 柏の葉ティムサ

High School Robotics and AI Educational Materials (QUESTiX)

We are proud to unveil our newly developed educational materials for high school robotics and AI, named QUESTiX. Designed to enhance exploration learning and extracurricular activities, QUESTiX will be introduced to a 3rd-year class at Kyoto Tachibana High School beginning September 2025. This program is part of the Ministry of Education’s initiative to promote digital transformation in high schools (DX High School). For further details, please refer to our related press releases.
