Dutch Who are we?
We are a group of secondary school students at the Lyceum Kralingen in Rotterdam. We design, build and program our own robots. Every week we meet and we are optimizing our robots to get them as far as possible in different competitions.
Via Twitter @TeamRoboticus we have kept everyone informed about the matches. Photos of the match are also available under the tab “Matches“.
News item 2025: New generation Team Roboticus ready for the National Championship!
Thanks to our hard work and perseverance, we finally achieved the 5th place on the World Cup in Eindhoven! This progress and success would not have been possible without the support of our great sponsors: Robeco, Pololu Robotics, Tinytronics, OpenMV, Altium, Opencircuit en Roboclass. Thanks everyone!
After the summer vacation, we started a new generation of robotics full of energy! This year we are working with a new and young team of enthusiastic students who are ready to further develop our robots.
To be well-prepared, we have made a practice robot. This gave us the chance to make mistakes and learn so we can apply it to the advanced lightweight robots. We have made great progress thanks to this method of learning
The coming weeks will be all about preparing for the Dutch Championship. With the experience we have gained and the new changes we have implemented, we hope to perform strongly and win the NK. In addition, we are already working with a sidelong eye towards the next EC, which is in Italy this year and where we want to compete at the highest level again.
We are looking forward to an exciting and successful year and can’t wait to see our robots perform! ⚽
Now we focus on the Nederlands Championship 2025 in Delft.!
Check the team here!
Soccer lightweight
The robots we develop are intended for the Soccer Lightweight League. Teams from all over the world participate in this competition, such as during the RoboCup Junior World Championship.
During the National Championships there will be 1-against-1 played in an exciting competition. The robots compete to score as many goals as possible in two halves. The game is played with an official match ball that emits infrared pulses. These signals are picked up by sensors on the robot, allowing it to locate the ball. In combination with other sensors, such as light sensors, a compass or a gyroscope, the robot can play football completely autonomously!
Rescue line
The robots that we made in middleschool , are made for the Rescue League. Same as for Soccer Lightweight is de Rescue League an official competition that is held during NK, EK en WK RoboCup Junior. From 2023 we take part in this.
The Rescue Line Competition is a search and rescue challenge where a autonomous robot follows a black line and must overcome various obstacles, debris and complex lines along the way. The arena consists of modular tiles with different patterns. The ultimate challenge is to rescue victims: black balls that the robot has to pick up and place in a colored container to earn points.
Rescue line entry
The robots that we made in under-middle level make, are used in the Rescue Line Entry League. This competition is similar to the Rescue League, but is a bit simpler and ideal for beginners.
In this challenge a autonomous robot follows a black line and must overcome various obstacles, debris and complex lines along the way. The arena consists of modular field with tiles that have different patterns. The floor is white and the tiles are on different levels, which are connected to each other with slopes.
