Full Category Details
01

Healthcare & Assistance

Home-Care Decathlon

Robots assist elderly individuals with daily living activities — medication delivery, mobility support, and emergency response — inside a simulated home environment.

02

Retail & Customer Service

Pop-Up Store Sprint

Deploy a fully operational retail pop-up: stock shelves, guide customers, process payments, and handle real-time inventory — all within a timed sprint.

Warehouse & Logistics

Hybrid Fulfilment Relay

Navigate a dynamic warehouse environment — pick, sort, and pack mixed-weight parcels under a live order queue with human co-workers present.

04

Industrial Inspection

Resilience Challenge

Traverse complex industrial sites, identify structural anomalies, and report findings in real time. Robots are scored on accuracy, speed, and terrain adaptability.

05

Education & Social

Classroom Co-Tutor Cup

Lead an interactive learning session for a diverse group of students, adapting to questions, managing classroom dynamics, and explaining complex concepts clearly.

06

Future Vertical

Coming Soon

A sixth competition vertical will be unveiled as the challenge approaches. Follow us for announcements — the next frontier of humanoid robotics is being written now.

Why Compete

Built for robots
that work

HRWC is not an academic showcase. Every challenge is drawn from real commercial deployments. Your robot must handle real environments, real objects, and real time pressure.

Prove Real-World Capability
HRWC tasks are designed around actual industry problems. Winning here means your robot works outside the lab — in conditions that matter.
Unmatched Global Visibility
Compete in front of industry decision-makers, investors, and media from across the global robotics and technology landscape.
Access to an Elite Ecosystem
Connect with champions, advisors, and partners who are actively deploying humanoid robots in commercial settings today.
