REK runs a sport built on full-size robots controlled by human pilots in real time. The idea is to turn robotics into a direct, physical contest that feels both digital and real. A pilot uses VR gear to control the robot’s body, and the match plays out with actual machines in an arena.

REK blends entertainment, robotics R&D, and control-system stress-testing in one format. The sport forces hardware to withstand hits, fast motion, and heat under real load, giving teams clear data on limits. It’s a mix of sport, robotics testing, and human-machine skill.
