In this paper, wewill discuss howthis competition has come to be more than simply a venue where teams compete to find a champion and is now "A League of Teams with one goal: to Develop and Demonstrate Advanced Robotic Capabilities for Emergency Responders." © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014.Mahidol UniversityComputer ScienceEngineeringConference PaperSCOPUS10.1007/978-3-642-40686-7_9
