AAMAS 2014 Demonstration


In this demonstration we show how various approaches from different computer science domains have been combined to win the 2013 world championship title in the RoboCup@Work league. RoboCup@Work aims to facilitate the use of autonomous robots in industry. Among other contributions, we show how artificial intelligence can be successfully reintegrated into a noteworthy robotics solution. This entails (simultaneous) localization and mapping, navigation, object recognition and object manipulation. The platform used is ground based, capable of omnidirectional movement and equipped with a five degree of freedom arm featuring a parallel gripper.
