General Rules: https://junior.robocup.org/robocupjunior-general-rules/
Here you will find the rules of the individual disciplines that apply to the Robocup European Championship. In case of doubts, please send us an email to ecs@robocup.de .
Soccer
Entry 1:1 Entry
The Soccer Entry Rules are based on the international RoboCupJunior Soccer Lightweight Rules.
Entry 1:1 Lightweight
Soccer Lightweight games shall be played with well-balanced electronic ball. The ball will emit infrared (IR) light set to pulsed mode.
2:2 Lightweight
2VS2 Soccer Lightweight games shall be played with a well-balanced electronic ball. The ball emits infrared (IR) light in so called “pulsed mode”.
2:2 Open
Soccer Open games shall be played with passive orange ball.
Rescue
Line
An autonomous robot should follow a black line while overcoming different problems in a modular arena formed by tiles with different patterns. The floor is white in color and the tiles are on different levels connected with ramps. Team members may compete in Rescue Line twice (2 international events). After two participation, they must move to Rescue Maze.
MAze
The robot needs to search through a maze for victims. The robot should not find the fastest path through the maze, instead it should explore as much of the maze as possible. The robot will get points for each victim found and will deliver a rescue kit close to the victim. The robot must avoid areas with a black floor.
Simulation
Teams have to develop and program appropriate strategies for virtual autonomous robots to navigate through virtual worlds.
Line Entry
The rules for the Rescue Line Entry are based on the international rules of RoboCupJunior Rescue Line.
Maze Entry
The rules for the Rescue Maze Entry are based on the international rules of RoboCupJunior Rescue Maze.
Rescue CoSpace Preliminary
The RCAP CoSpace Autonomous Delivery (ADL) Challenge is an event that combines mobile robots and supply chain management. In this challenge, teams are tasked with programming a robot to deliver parcels in an autonomous and speedy manner, in both last-mile delivery and smart city scenarios.
Rescue CoSpace Advanced
In RCAP CoSpace Rescue Challenge, teams have to develop and program appropriate strategies for both real and virtual autonomous robots to navigate through the real and virtual worlds to collect objects while competing with another team’s robot that is searching and collecting objects in the same real and virtual worlds.
OnStage
OnStage
RoboCupJunior OnStage (formerly Dance) invites teams to develop a creative stage performance using autonomous robots that they have designed, built and programmed. The objective is to create a robotic performance of 1 to 2 minutes that uses technology to engage an audience. The challenge is intended to be open-ended. This includes a whole range of possible performances, for example dance, storytelling, theatre or an art installation. The performance may involve music but this is optional. Teams are encouraged to be as creative, innovative and entertaining, in both the design of the robots and in the design of the overall performance. The performance may involve up to two team members on the stage at any one time but this is optional. The emphasis must be on the robotic performance rather than the human performers. Teams will be considered Preliminary unless they have one or more members who have attended two international RoboCupJunior competitions in any league. Teams are judged in the following areas – technical demonstration, technical interview, OnStage performance and a Technical Description Paper.
