WELCOME TO NRC 2026<\/b><\/h1>\n
Robots Meet Culture<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

The NRC theme for 2026 is Robots Meet Culture.<\/p>\n

In 2026, teams will explore how robots can help shape, protect, and grow art and culture in today\u2019s world. From ancient cave paintings to modern digital art, from fashion to architecture, people have always used creativity to tell stories, preserve traditions, and inspire change. And robots are becoming creative partners and protectors of our cultural history.<\/p>\n

They can bring old art back to life, help create new and exciting forms of art and make cultural treasures easier to access for people everywhere. Robots can also help communities share their stories in new and powerful ways. When Robots Meet Culture endless possibilities arise!<\/p>\n

At this page you can find the official Games & Rules for NRC 2026, and more important information about competing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
