The 11th Guangzhou/Hong Kong/Macao/Chengdu (GHMC) Youth Skills Competition was held from 14 to 19 December 2021. This year’s event was held online due to COVID-19 restrictions. To enhance young people’s skills and unleash their potential, students from the four target regions were challenged to display their skills in using digital technologies in five trade-related areas: mobile robotics, cyber security, electrical installations, pâtisserie and confectionery, and visual merchandising.
Teams were formed by students from the HD in Mechanical Engineering and HD in Electrical Engineering to compete in the mobile robotics category. The robots were required to perform various tasks, such as relocating objects to specific locations, items identification and transportation. Our students master codes to operate the robots smoothly, their technical excellence and their potential to drive industry development in Hong Kong were showcased in the competition.
