Artificial Intelligence - Bremen Football-Robot wins again WM Title
Football robots from Bremen won the World Championship title again at the RoboCup-WM 2024: The B-Human team of the University of Bremen and the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) secured this title for the eleventh time, as the University announced.
At the tournament in Eindhoven, Netherlands, the Bremen team scored 86 goals and conceded only one. This allowed them to outrank HTWK Robots from Leipzig in second place and RoboÉireann from Ireland in third, according to the announcement.
The robots played in the so-called Standard Platform League. In this league, all teams use the same humanoid robot type, as the University stated. Therefore, it is mainly about skillful software development.
The RoboCup is one of the largest international competitions for intelligent robotics. In this year, from July 17 to 21, 300 robot teams from 45 countries participated. The goal of the event is to promote the development of robots and their artificial intelligence so they can operate without direct human control. The participating teams came from universities, research institutions, and industry.
