RoboCup @Home 2012

A team of students of the UPC are participating at RoboCup @Home in partnership with PAL Robotics

June 18-24, Mexico City

The RoboCup@Home league aims to develop service and assistive robot technology with high relevance for future personal domestic applications. It is the largest international annual competition for autonomous service robots and is part of the RoboCup initiative. A set of benchmark tests is used to evaluate the robots’ abilities and performance in a realistic non-standardized home environment setting. Focus lies on the following domains but is not limited to: Human-Robot-Interaction and Cooperation, Navigation and Mapping in dynamic environments, Computer Vision and Object Recognition under natural light conditions, Object Manipulation, Adaptive Behaviors, Behavior Integration, Ambient Intelligence, Standardization and System Integration. It is colocated with the RoboCup symposium.

PAL Robotics is working with a team of students from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya.

We are now in the process of selecting the students that will form part of the team!
