The mission is to generate an interest in science and engineering among today's youth. The aim of NARC is to provide a competitive sporting environment for fighting robots. NARC has devised a set of competition rules to regulate the sport so that fair and consistent competition can take place in a season. The rules regulate both competitor and event organizer ensuring consistency of events. Emphasis is placed on competition and safety, not entertainment.
Competition includes rope climbing, swiming, foot races, jumping, etc.
