euROBIN Coopetitions introduce a new robot competition concept, where participating teams get awarded for the performance of their contributions both for the own team and for other teams that (re)use their modules. Teams must deposit their software modules in a shared repository EuroCore (the Marketplace) where other teams may go to pick and use them for their own competition runs. This way, the skills required to accomplish tasks in the different application domains result from composing modules developed by different teams. The objective of the first euROBIN Coopetition is to learn from this experience what makes a software module successful, in the sense of being reused in different robots and/or tasks by different teams.
The euROBIN coopetitions will be used as a way to leverage this goal by motivating international teams to develop their solutions to handle three application domains in a way that supports and pushes euROBIN’s goal:
- Robotic manufacturing for a circular economy
- Personal robots for enhanced quality of life and well-being
- Outdoor robots for sustainable communities
euROBIN’s cooperative competitions (Self titled as Coopetitions) are based on a scoring system that gives credit to a team for its own achievements in executing tasks and for the successful usage by other teams of modules developed by the team. Team scores are also higher when they use other team’s modules.

Additionally, teams must specify which algorithms they intend to share via the euROBIN EuroCore platform and provide descriptions of the software modules they require. The paper should include the league name (Industrial Robots, Service Robots, Outdoor Robots), the team’s name, the team members’ names, contact information, website details, a description of the robot’s hardware, and relevant photos.) – max 4 pages two-column article format IEEE Conference style
- Video: showcasing one or multiple robots executing a task related to the league where the team intends to participate. For instance, in a manipulation task for the Industrial Robots League, a human-robot interaction task for the Service Robots League, or a navigation with obstacle avoidance task for the Outdoor Robots League. The task goal must be clear and the robot execution must clearly achieve it. The video can be sped up and must have a maximum duration of 10 minutes. The team must state if the execution is fully autonomous or has some degree of tele-operation.
