The European Robotics League is an innovative concept for robot competitions which stems from its predecessor, the RoCKIn@Work competition, and focuses on tasks that industrial robots execute in a real factory environment. The ERL is composed of multiple "Local tournaments", held in different research labs across Europe, with certified test beds, and a few competitions as part of "Major tournaments" such as German Open. Teams participate in a minimum of two tournaments (Local and/or Major) per year and get scores based on their performances. Scores of the best two participation in tournaments for each team are added and teams are ranked based on their cumulative score. Prizes for the top teams are awarded during the next year’s European Robotics Forum (ERF).

We are pleased to announce the first Local Tournament on the ERL Professional Service Robots (ERL-PSR) challenge, to be held between 22-24 August 2017 at Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg , Germany, simultaneously with the European Robotics Week.
