KOSEN are schools in Japan that teach technology. They offer a 5-year engineering program for 15-year-olds graduating from high school. Teams of students representing various KOSEN schools throughout the country compete on a given theme at an annual robotics meet, the KOSEN Robocon. This year, the challenge was throwing a bottle, riffing off the popular bottle-flip internet challenge. You have to hand it to the students for their creative achievements.
