DoB JolJan Emerges as Asia’s Leading Rookie Team at RoboBoat 2026
Who said rookies are meant to observe and not dominate?
At the RoboBoat 2026 Autonomy Challenge, DoB JolJan accomplished what many believed was beyond the reach of a first-year team—successfully completing three autonomy tasks, including two Core tasks and one Advanced task. This milestone stands as one that even teams with over a decade of participation history have struggled to achieve. In a competition where experience is often considered the ultimate advantage, we proved that vision, resilience, and relentless preparation can rewrite expectations.
We did not arrive with years of legacy behind us. We arrived with belief. And today, as the current Asian Rookie Champions of RoboBoat 2026, DoB JolJan has not only represented Bangladesh on the global stage—we have set a new benchmark for what a rookie team can accomplish.
This is not just a result. This is history in RoboBoat. 🔥🤍
