🚁 Not your typical drone race…

At FIRA RoboWorld Cup & Summit 2026 – Canada 🇨🇦, the Autonomous Race in the FIRA AIR league is where flying robots think for themselves.

Teams work with platforms like DJI Tello, building intelligent algorithms that allow drones to see, decide, and act—completely autonomously.

The mission?
Detect the gates.
Choose the path.
Fly through—flawlessly. 🎯

No pilots. No second chances. Just pure AI in motion.

This is what the future of aerial robotics looks like.

Technology evolves when ideas find their way to real impact.

That’s what FIRA Innovation & Business League is all about an international platform designed to connect researchers, entrepreneurs, and creative minds in the fields of robotics, mechatronics, and artificial intelligence.

At FIRA, we bring together innovation-driven projects from universities, startups, and R&D teams around the world giving them visibility, mentorship, and international connections that help ideas move from labs to markets.

The League celebrates projects that combine engineering excellence with entrepreneurial potential from intelligent robots and automation systems to AI solutions that transform industries and daily life.

If you’re passionate about technology, innovation, and collaboration, this is your arena to showcase, learn, and grow.

We’ll be waiting for you at FIRA RoboWorld Cup & Summit 2026 in Markham, Canada, where creativity meets global opportunity.

Let’s build the future of robotics and AI together.

With pride, the Canadian National Robotic Society (CNRS) presents:

The Autonomous Cars League at the FIRA RoboWorld Cup & Summit 2026 Canada 🚗🤖

Where innovation, artificial intelligence, and advanced engineering converge to shape the future of autonomous mobility.
In this league, teams from around the world showcase their expertise by designing and implementing intelligent algorithms for self-driving vehicles in challenging real-world scenarios.

If you’re passionate about robotics, AI, and future technologies, this is an event you don’t want to miss.
The future is here… and you are part of it.
