Hi Everyone,
I’d like to share some news with the junior community.
At Werob 24, we presented a Bridge Humanoid proposal in collaboration with Alessandra Rossi from Major Humanoid.
We’re now planning to organize a tournament as a side event during the RCJ European 2024, which will take place in Bari, Italy.
To gather feedback, we’ve summarized the key points of our proposal:
Proposal Highlights:
• Establish a bridging event for the Humanoid League over a two-year transition period.
• Teams will compete in challenges with only one robot.
• Two levels of difficulty will be available (first or second year).
Specifications by Experience Level
First-Year Teams:
• Degrees of Freedom (DOF): ≤16
• Maximum weight: 3 kg
• Maximum height: 40 cm
• Maximum of 2 cameras for ball recognition
Second-Year Teams:
• Degrees of Freedom (DOF): ≤23
• Maximum weight: 5 kg
• Maximum height: 60 cm
• Maximum of 2 cameras for ball recognition
Challenges
Entry-Level Challenges:
• Walk at least 1 meter without falling
• Track the ball while standing and walking
• Kick the ball
• Recognize the goal and attempt to kick towards it
• Dribble around a stationary opponent robot
Advanced Challenges:
• Stand up after falling
• Score a goal
• Communicate with the game controller for Start/Stop commands
• Soccer matches with 1 or 2 players
We’re looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback on this proposal!
