Team Applied Robotics to participate in APC 2016

On June 30th, 2016, the second installment of the Amazon Picking Challenge will take place as part of the Robocup event in Leipzig, Germany.

We, as Team Applied Robotics, are happy to announce that we have been selected to participate again in the Amazon Picking Challenge!

One of our team members from last year, John Gardenier, has left for a PhD position in Sydney and will not participate this year.
However, we are very happy to welcome Wim Abbeloos as a new team member! He joins Berend Kupers and Simon Jansen to form this year's core development team.



We' re very excited for the challenge this year, which includes not only picking items from the shelf. but also picking items from a bin and stowing them onto the shelf.

We've restarted development and will from now on regularly update this blog in the coming months.
