RoboCup
Rescue US Open, the Carnegie Mellon University and The University
Pittsburgh Team RAPTOR won 1st place in the Advanced Mobility
class, 1st place in the Advanced Autonomy class and 3rd
place in the RoboRescue League. RAPTOR was the only team
to enter robots in every round of the competition. The RAPTOR
team fielded three
robots, a Pioneer, a PER and a Tarantula, that coordinated
to search and find victims in 3 arenas of increasing difficulty.
Congratulations to Mary Koes, Anton Chechetka, and Robin
Glinton.
