Workshop & Competition on Domestic Service Robotics
Delhi-NCR, India 2020
[Dates] 13th - 15th January 2020
[Venue] Shiv Nadar School, Gurugram
[Address] Pahari Road, Block E, DLF Phase 1, Sector 26, Gurugram, Haryana, India - 122011
[Instructors] Prof. Jeffrey Tan and Heramb Reddy Modugula
RoboCup@Home Education is an educational initiative that promotes educational efforts to boost RoboCup@Home participation and service robot development. We have started @Home Education activities since 2015, organized various competitions in Japan Open 2015, 2016, 2017, and RoboCup Asia-Pacific 2017, which generated more than 10 new teams with more than 50 participants in @Home participation. As an educational effort, since 2016 we have also conducted more than 8 workshops in domestic Japan and overseas. The workshop audiences were ranging from 20~70 participants, not limited to technical university students, but also inexperienced high school students and the general public.
On December 2017, in collaboration with MathWorks, we had organized the Education Challenge at RoboCup Asia-Pacific 2017 Bangkok, in a combined workshop and competition event. It was a great success in transforming totally inexperienced participants to be able to build a robot and ace the competition. We had obtained a bigger success in RoboCup 2018 Montreal, where a total of 11 teams over 40 participants from 9 different countries had taken part in the event. With this inspiring motivation, we have organized this event in the RoboCup 2019 Sydney for the participation from the worldwide RoboCup community.
