The ACRV Picking Benchmark (APB): A Robotic Shelf Picking Benchmark to Foster Reproducible Research
arXiv, submitted to RA:Letters
Robotic challenges like the Amazon Picking Challenge (APC) or the DARPA Challenges are an established and important way to drive scientific progress. They make research comparable on a well-defined benchmark with equal test conditions for all participants. However, such challenge events occur only occasionally, are limited to a small number of contestants, and the test conditions are very difficult to replicate after the main event. We present a new physical benchmark challenge for robotic…
Robotic challenges like the Amazon Picking Challenge (APC) or the DARPA Challenges are an established and important way to drive scientific progress. They make research comparable on a well-defined benchmark with equal test conditions for all participants. However, such challenge events occur only occasionally, are limited to a small number of contestants, and the test conditions are very difficult to replicate after the main event. We present a new physical benchmark challenge for robotic picking: the ACRV Picking Benchmark (APB). Designed to be reproducible, it consists of a set of 42 common objects, a widely available shelf, and exact guidelines for object arrangement using stencils. A well-defined evaluation protocol enables the comparison of \emph{complete} robotic systems -- including perception and manipulation -- instead of sub-systems only. Our paper also describes and reports results achieved by an open baseline system based on a Baxter robot.

Maritime RobotX is an international robotics competition that challenges multidisciplinary teams of students to design, build, and operate autonomous surface vessels (ASVs) to complete various maritime missions within an open-water course (Oahu Hawaii, 2016) . Hosted by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) Foundation; Sponsors include the Office of Navel Research, Australian Government Dept. of Defence, and Robonation, The event encourages collaboration, innovation, and the advancement of maritime robotic technologies, fostering the next generation of engineers and scientists in the field.
Team QUT ranked second place in final standings. -
