ToBI - Team of Bielefeld: Enhancing Robot Behaviors and the Role of Multi-robotics in RoboCup@Home

摘要

In this paper, we describe the joint effort of the Team of Bielefeld (ToBI) which won the RoboCup@Home competition in Leipzig 2016. RoboCup@Home consists of a defined set of benchmarking tests that cover multiple skills needed by service robots. We present the robotic platforms, technical contributions, and lessons learned from previous events that led to the final success this year. This includes a framework for behavior modeling and communication employed on two human-sized robots Floka and Biron as well as on the small robotic device AMiRo. These were used for a multi-robot collaboration scenario in the Finals. We describe our main contributions in automated testing, error handling, memorization and reporting, robot-robot coordination, and flexible grasping that considers object shape.
