Cosero |
Our cognitive service robot
Cosero became operational in Fall 2010. Cosero has an
eight-wheeled omnidirectional base (12 DOF), a movable trunk (2 DOF),
two anthropomorphic arms (7 DOF each), and a movable sensor head (2
DOF). Its arms are twice as strong as the ones of Dynamaid. The robot
is equipped with four laser scanners, two cameras, a time-of-flight
camera, a directional microphone, and distance sensors in the hand. Futher information can be found at the @home pages. |
Dynamaid |
Our
domestic service robot Dynamaid was constructed for the RoboCup 2009
@Home competition, which took place in Graz. Dynamaid has an
eight-wheeled omnidirectional base (12 DOF), a movable trunk (2 DOF),
two anthropomorphic arms (7 DOF each), and a movable sensor head (2
DOF). Together with Robotinho, Dynamaid
won the innovation award. Our team Nimbro@Home came in third in the
overall ranking. We also reached the second place in the @Home league
of RoboCup German Open. Futher information can be found at the @home pages. |
Dynaped |
Our
TeenSize robot Dynaped was constructed in 2008 and competed
for the first time in RoboCup
2009, Graz, where it won the TeenSize competitions. It won 2:0 against CIT-Brains in the Dribble&Kick final and also won the technical challenges. The robot has 13 active DOF and an additional passive joint in the hip. The legs include a parallel kinematic mechanism. |
Ariane, Birgit, Conny, and Steffi |
Our
KidSize 2008 robots Ariane and Birgit were constructed prior to RoboCup
German Open
2008. Conny and Steffi became operational for RoboCup 2008. They are 60cm tall and have a total weight of 3,5kg. The robots have 17DOF and are equipped with a new camera head, containing three cameras. Together with the modified KidSize 2007 robots, they won the RoboCup German Open 2008 humanoid league competitions. |
Robotina |
Robotina
is the TeenSize robot we built for
the RoboCup 2007
Humanoid League competitons. The robot is 122cm tall and has a total weight of 8.75kg. Her 21 joints are driven by intelligent actuators. Robotina is equipped with a 1.3GHz PC, three wide-angle cameras, and an attitude sensor. Robotina won the RoboCup 2007 penalty kick competion. |
Rudi, Jürgen, Lothar, and Bodo |
Rudi,
Jürgen, and Lothar, are the KidSize robots that we built for
the RoboCup 2007
Humanoid League competitons. Their larger brother Bodo plays
in the TeenSize class. The KidSize robots are 60cm tall and have a total weight of 4kg. Their 20 joints are driven by intelligent actuators. The robots are equipped with a 1.3GHz PC, three wide-angle cameras, and an attitude sensor. They won the RoboCup 2007 humanoid soccer tournament. |
Robotinho |
Robotinho has been equipped with an expressive head, movable cameras, a laser scanner, and ultrasonic distance sensors. It is used to investigate intuitive multimodal communication with humans in a museum tour guide scenario. The robot has 40 DOF: 25 DOF in the body and 15 DOF in the head. Robotinho is 110cm tall and weights about 6kg. Since 2009, Robotinho moves on an eight-wheeled omnidirectional base and competes in the RoboCup@Home league. The
robot's name was chosen in a
public vote organized by ZDF. We intend to use the communication skills of
Robotinho in the RoboCup@Home league. |

Paul, Franz, and Gerd |
Paul, Franz, and Gerd are the KidSize robots that we built for the RoboCup 2006 Humanoid League competition in Bremen. The robots are 60cm high and have a total weight of about 2,9kg. Their 20 joints are driven by intelligent actuators. They are equipped with a Pocket PC, two wide-angle cameras, and an attitude sensor. At RoboCup 2006, the robots won the Penalty Kick competition. They reached the final in the 2 vs. 2 soccer games and scored in the passing challenge and in the rough terrain challenge. In the oberall Best Humanoid ranking, our KidSize robots came in second. Paul, Franz and Gerd played demonstration games at the open house in Dagstuhl, at the Wissenschaftssommer (science summer) in Munich, and at the Science Days at Europa-Park Rust. Gerd was demonstrated at ASAI50 in Ascona. |
