=== RoboCup@Home Education Challenge 2018 @ RoboCup 2018 Montreal ===
June 16 ~ 21, 2018 Montreal, Canada http://www.robocupathomeedu.org
<<Introduction>>
RoboCup@Home Education is an educational initiative that promotes educational efforts to boost RoboCup@Home participation and service robot development. We have started @Home Education activities since 2015, organized various competitions in Japan Open 2015, 2016, 2017, and RoboCup Asia-Pacific 2017, which generated more than 10 new teams with more than 50 participants in @Home participation. As an educational effort, since 2016 we have also conducted more than 8 workshops in domestic Japan and overseas. The workshop audiences were ranging from 20~70 participants, not limited to technical university students, but also inexperienced high school students and general public. Last December, in collaboration with MathWorks, we had organized the Education Challenge at RoboCup Asia-Pacific 2017 Bangkok, in a combined workshop and competition event. It was a great success in transforming totally inexperienced participants to be able to build robot and ace the competition.
With this inspiring motivation, we are honored to host the RoboCup@Home Education Challenge 2018 Workshop & Competition in the Innovation Summit of RoboCup 2018 Montreal on this coming June 2018 for the participation from worldwide RoboCup community.
