SDJU Intelligent Robotics Competition Team，leveraging the resources of Robot Workshop at Dishui· Innovation Station SDJU ie Center, actively prepared for competitions under the joint guidance of faculty members from School of Electronics and Information Engineering (SEIE), School of Electrical Engineering (SEE), and Industrial Technology Center (ITC). Their relentless efforts culminated in a series of top-tier competitions, including 2024 China Robot Competition & RoboCup China Open (RoboCup), National University Contest on Intelligent Robotic Innovations (NUCIRI), and RAICOM. The team secured a total of 14 awards, including first and second prizes in 2024 RoboCup Final. A total of 127 person-time participated in these competitions, setting a new record in participant, award count, and overall performance.
In May and November, 2024 RoboCup was held in Quanzhou and Xi’an, respectively. As one of the most influential and technically advanced robotics discipline competitions in China, the event also serves as a premier academic conference and a major science population platform. The team excelled the intense competitions, securing one first prize, one second prize and two third prizes in categories such as rescue robots and service robots.
From August 21 to 22, 2024, the NUCIRI Final took place in Yuyao, Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. Organized by NUCIRI Committee and hosted by Yuyao Municipal People’s Government and Zhejiang University Robotics Institute, the competition featured multiple categories, including creativity, competition, and combat. Key events include Tetris robot, quadruped robot, VEX-U robot, and humanoid robot. Through dedicated preparation, SDJU team achieved excellent results, securing a second prize in quadruped robot category.
From November 22 to 24, 2024, the RAICOM (CAIM Engineering Maker Track) National Final was held at Beijing University of Chemical Technology (BUCT). Organized by Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Talent Exchange Center (MIITEC) and hosted by BUCT, the competition featured various events, including quadruped robot collaboration, virtual-physical integrated robotic arm task, ROS simulation, and digital product design and 3D printing. Through diligent preparation, SDJU team achieved excellent results, winning one second prize and one third prize in ROS simulation challenge.
In recent years, SDJU Education Center of Innovation and Entrepreneurship has actively explored a multi-departmental and multidisciplinary collaborative innovation mechanism, encouraging the formation of cross-school and cross-discipline competition teams. At Dishui· Innovation Station SDJU ie Center, a dedicated robot workshop and training/debugging platform have been established. The center recruited outstanding students from various disciplines, including computer science and technology, electrical engineering and automation, mechatronics, industrial engineering, and electronic information, to participate in competitions. A team of advisors from SEIE, SEE, and ITC has been formed, bringing together expertise in robotics programming, algorithm design, electrical control, circuit design, system debugging, and competition training. By leveraging their respective strengths, they provide comprehensive guidance to competition teams and foster the development of interdisciplinary and innovative talents. Through the establishment of a long-term mechanism for competition teams, SDJU has achieved remarkable results in the field of intelligent robotics, winning over 40 national-level awards. The mechanism has nurtured a large number of outstanding graduates with solid professional foundations and strong practical skills, earning high recognition from employers. Moving forward, SDJU will continue to uphold its technology-based and application-oriented educational philosophy, innovate talent cultivation models, and actively contribute to training more innovative and practical excellent field engineers for Shanghai and the Lin-gang Special Area.
