  • Virtual reality headset
  • etc...

All you need to do is to join, come up with an interest idea for a
cool robotic experiment, form your teams, and do it!

Requirements

You should have attended at least robotics-1 and ideally robotics-2
as well. Furthermore, it is highly recommended that each team has at
least one member who has attended the robotic Praktikum at IRP or
robotics related SEP, or any other hands-on experience with robots
and robotics.

Schedule

The kick-off meeting will be on 21.10.2019 at 15:00, in the IRP
library located at G04. If you are interested but cannot attend the
meeting send an email to the address mentioned below.

Once you are officially registered, there will be a hands-on meeting
where you learn the basics about robot control. Then a lab tour
where you are introduced to our robots, their capabilities, their
software, etc. After that you have to define your teams and your
projects and then present them at a group meeting. Others, including
IRP's scientific staff will give you feedback and suggestions about
your idea. From this point on, you implement your project and have
fun!
