What is ToBi
Team of Bielefeld (ToBi) is a team of students, PhD’s and employees of the University of Bielefeld that focuses on the development of robotics.
Each year new students participate in the RoboCup@Home courses and are engaged in the development of different service robot platforms. These students form the Team of Bielefeld (ToBi) to participate in the RoboCup@Home Open Platform League (OPL).
Beginning with our first participation in 2009 at the Robocup World Cup 2009 in Graz, Austria, our team has been able to qualify for the RoboCup World Championship each year. Since 2012, ToBi repeatedly ranked among the best teams in the @Home league and won multiple competitions.
