We had the chance to work with Roboticist Tomotaka Takahashi, creator of the Volta Robot, and his team from Japan in the Evolta World Challenge I: Hawaii Triathlon, held here in Kona.
The Evolta World Challenge is a yearly challenge that Takahashi takes on, building robots powered by Panasonic batteries. This partnership began the Evolta challenge. During each challenge, the robot must complete a challenge using the same three batteries throughout the entire race. If the batteries run out of charge, the robot must stop and recharge. These challenged proc the power of Panasonic batteries and bring publicity to Mr. Takahashi and his robot Evolta.
