PolyU FENG AI & Robotics Club
Robocon 2027, a robot dog designed and built by students, and drone, robot dog and unmanned vehicle platforms for real-world applications.
One competition and one full design-and-build project. Teams are formed by Tier 1 and Tier 2 members and draw on all four technical groups.
The Hong Kong contest and the route to ABU Robocon 2027 in Solo, Indonesia. Two robots, one fully autonomous, rebuild towers and race to place the Mustika.
The game, Robocon history and our plan
A quadruped robot designed from a blank sheet, then built, assembled and tested by members, and documented for the next cohort.
Subsystems, engineering and phasesA drone, a robot dog or an unmanned vehicle is a platform, not a single project. Once it moves reliably, it can carry different sensors and tools for different jobs. Members choose an application, write a proposal and develop it on the shared platform.
Building inspection, infrastructure patrol, campus monitoring and delivery in a high-rise city.
Applications and engineering
Guide dog for visually impaired people, delivery up and down stairs, inspection and search and rescue.
Applications and engineering
Campus delivery, patrol, mapping and logistics problems from industry partners.

A long-term project preparing for the RoboCup China Open in 2028. In 2026–27 it starts with robot platform selection, skills training and small internal matches, building on the robot dog and ground vehicle platforms.

Every project, including competition projects, follows the same six stages. Funding is released in three parts as the project passes each review.
Why PolyU should support it, what will be built and how, why this team can deliver, the target result and how it is measured, the budget, milestones, risks and safety controls.
Every purchase needs a quotation and approval first. Check club and University inventory before buying, and keep every receipt and purchase record.
Only Tier 1 and Tier 2 members can enter a competition or run a funded project. If several teams want to represent PolyU, an internal competition decides.
A team that misses its target without a convincing reason is normally not funded in the next cycle, and its members' tiers are reviewed. A failed mid-term review stops the project.
Industrial Centre space is shared and allocated by application for a set period. Space used less than about 60% of the time goes back to the Industrial Centre.
Every project keeps a repository with requirements, CAD, code, bill of materials, test logs and lessons learned. A project closes only after a complete handover.
