I built very few robots so far, but you can see them in action in the MOC section. Most of them are contestants at the Lego Fests, held in Italy since January 2000.
There is also a generic Lego photo/clip gallery where you can see me "doing" Lego.

  • LegoFest

    I finished the first release of my LegoFest software. LegoFest is the name of the Lego events held in Italy and organized by the IT-LUG club. It can run many types of Lego competitions based on matches between two robots or teams. By now it computes the pairings using the swiss method, developed mainly for chess tournaments. It can also resolve all the ex-equo using the Buholz or Sonneborn Berger methods. The first method is used when the players meet only a subset of all the participats (swiss mode); the second is used when they meet all (italian mode), even more than once. This steps are very complex, annoying and time consuming (even with 6 players only) when computed by hand by the poor referees, always under the pressure of the impatient players. :-)
    This program can run events with more than 100 players, performing all the computations in no measurable time. Of course it can also save, resume, visualize and print any tournament phase.
    This program has not been tested enough, in order to be released to other clubs.
