Table Tennis
New for 2026 and the smallest complete competition on the programme: robot versus robot, fully autonomous, and the only WHRG event with a declared machine-readable spatial ground truth (HOPE motion capture, ROS 2 REP-103 frame). The organiser published the whole 1v1 duel in one announcement: 12 competitors, four groups and the knockout bracket.

How a result is structured
Table Tennis result definition
OfficialOfficial result as published by the WHRG Organising Committee. RoboPodium reproduces it unchanged.
- Best of 3 games to 11 points, win by 2. ITTF Laws otherwise apply.
- Top two from each group advance. The bracket prints its game scores in bracket order, so the first side listed is the upper line and not the winner.
- Mandatory qualification video, graded pass / conditional pass / fail, with a 14-day cure period.
- Preparation overrun: −1 point per 60 s; a cumulative 3-minute overrun loses the match.
- A separate single-game exhibition pits the champion against an invited human professional.
Known unknowns
- Individual game scores for the 13 group matches. The cross-table prints match scores and game scores in one undelimited column, so no figure can be attributed to a particular pairing, and none is recorded.
- Seeding rules and whether the draw is seeded are not stated.
- Source conflict: the second-batch trial rules specify best-of-5; the master rulebook and the regulation specify best-of-3.
