Robotino Hackathon 2012

Posted about 7 hours ago

The IMA/ZLW & IFU Institute Cluster, RWTH Aachen University, the Knowledge-based Systems Group, RWTH Aachen University, and the Department for Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Robotics Group, FH Aachen founded a new joined team to ... [More] participate in the Festo RoboCup Logistics League

To kick off the team, and as a preparation for RoboCup 2012 in Mexico City, there will be a Hackathon from May 28th to June 1st (excursion week). The goal of this Hackathon is to integrate a robotics system based on the Robotino robot, that can complete certain logistics task in a restricted environment.

Who can participate?
Any student of the RWTH Aachen University or the FH Aachen can participate. Because of constraints in room and advisers participants will be selected among the applicants. Strong applications including good qualifying information is preferred.

Participants should be fluent in C++ programming. A background in robotics (lectures, programming experience etc.) is preferred but not required. Students must be eager to learn about new mathematical and programming concepts and to work in small groups on a particular topic.

What do we offer?
We can offer first-hand knowledge and experience in robot research and application development from an experienced team of robotics researchers. There will be introductory talks on the first day introducing the topics. On the following days small groups will work on the development an integration of modules on robot self-localization, navigation, computer vision, point cloud processing, behavior design, etc.

Some students will be selected to join us for the participation in RoboCup 2012 in Mexico City based on their work and team cooperation. There will be free Pizza and soft drinks throughout the Hackathon.

Background Info
The RoboCup Logistics League is a brand-new league sponsored by the German industrial manufacturer Festo. The goal is to solve problems in logistics with autonomous mobile robots in a competitive environment. Three Robotino robots per team have the task to transport material between production locations within the field of play.

When will the Hackathon take place?
The Hackathon will be held from May 28th 2012 to June 1st 2012. This is the excursion week at the RWTH Aachen University and there will be no lectures during that time. The Hackathon will be held daily from 9:00 to 18:00. Should you apply participation on each day for the full time is expected (exceptions could be negotiated, state in your application).

How to participate
To participate you will need to apply by email until May 13th 2012. Applicants will be notified by May 20th of acceptance or rejection. There are only a limited number of slots available. Applications will be selected based on the documentation handed in with the application.

To apply send an email to Tim Niemueller including information regarding your studies, semester, and about your background in (C++) programming, robotics, and relevant lectures.
