b-it-bots place 3rd at RoboCup@Work 2015
After finishing second in this year’s GermanOpen in Magdeburg, the international team of MAS students placed third in the @Work league at the RoboCup 2015 world championships in China. Oscar Lima, Shehzad Ahmed, Santosh Thoduka, Alexander Moriarty, Ashok Sundaram, Arka Mallick, Padmaja Kulkarni and Deebul Nair as well as their advisors Prof. Dr. Gerhard K. Kraetzschmar, Jose Manuel Sanchez Loza and Frederik Hegger invested much time in preparing for the competition and making this success happen.
This year, a total of six teams from three different countries (4x Germany, 1x Singapore, 1x China) were competing in the RoboCup@Work league.
The b-it bots are not expected to take too much time off after celebrating their success, because the next goal is already set: a place on the podium in the 2016 World Cup which will take place in Leipzig, Germany!
