All teams will compete under the theme "Harvest Day", inspired by terraced rice cultivation. Robots must perform tasks that simulate the rice cultivation process, from sowing seeds to harvesting, within a set period of time. Two teams representing Vietnam are SKH - AUTOMATION and SKH - CK1 from Hung Yen University of Technical Education.

In addition to the matches, there will be cultural exchanges and sightseeing tours of Ha Long Bay.

Annually held by the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union (ABU), the contest offers a playground for students passionate about robotics from the Asia-Pacific. At the ABU Robocon 2023 in Cambodia, Japan won the grand prix, followed by China’s Hong Kong, while Vietnam and China finished third.
