NimbRo-OP2X

This upgrade of NimbRo-OP2 became operational for RoboCup 2018. It has the same size of 135cm, but is equipped with an Intel QuadCore computer and a strong GPU. Its 18 joints are driven by new Dynamixel-X series actuators. Not only its structure, but also its gears are 3D printed. For more details, see here

Dynaped

Our TeenSize robot Dynaped was constructed in 2008 and competed for the first time in RoboCup 2009, Graz, where it won the TeenSize competitions.It was also the field player of our winning soccer team at RoboCup 2010 in Singapore and 2011 in Istanbul.
The robot has 13 active DOF and an additional passive joint in the hip. The legs include a parallel kinematic mechanism.

Bodo

Bodo was constructed in 2007. At this time, it had 20 joints and was 80cm tall. It first played as a penalty kick goalie at RoboCup 2007 in Atlanta. The robot came-in thirs at the 2008 Dribble & Kick competition in Suzhou. It won as goalie, together with Dynaped, RoboCup 2009 in Graz, RoboCup 2010 in Singapore, and RoboCup 2011 in Istanbul. Due to rule changes, the robot had to be elongated to more than 100cm. It now has 14 joints (6 per leg, 1 per arm) and weights about 5kg.
