In recent years, the robotics industry, industry 4.0, and self-driving car systems have developed rapidly. The school’s transnational seminar activities, with smart wheeled robots as the common learning theme, included straight-line racing, circle obstacle avoidance and tug-of war. In the three competitions, each group of students assembled vehicles based on the lecture materials provided by the study, or designed vehicles corresponding to the level based on the provided parts and materials. The students worked together and completed the competition requirements. At the same time, the Taiwanese and foreign students guided and helped each other, and built friendships through the activities.
