1st RAMI Physical Campaign <\/strong><\/h1>\n

for Marine Robots 2022, 10-15 July<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The first Robotics for Asset Maintenance and Inspection (RAMI) Marine Robots<\/strong> competition was held at the NATO STO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE)<\/strong> in La Spezia, Italy, 10 \u2012 15 July 2022<\/strong>. The competition did challenge the Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)<\/strong> of participant teams to accomplish Inspection & Maintenance tasks set in the CMRE protected seawater basin<\/strong>. AUVs required perception, manipulation, adaptive mission planning and autonomous navigation skills to be successful.<\/p>\n

The RAMI competition is organized in the framework of the METRICS project (Metrological Evaluation and Testing of Robots in International Competitions)<\/a>\u00a0and aims at addressing Inspection & Maintenance tasks achieved by aerial and underwater robots in risky and\/or hostile environments where human intervention is challenging or impossible, where direct link with an operator could not be guaranteed and where autonomous decisions are necessary to reduce operational time of the inspection tasks and ensure repeatability while maintaining an appropriate safety level for the mission. The evaluation process of RAMI competitions mainly involves tasks related to autonomous navigation, data acquisition, detection, classification and autonomous decision-making for inspection purposes. Since aerial and underwater domains are very different, both domains will be evaluated separately in two different tracks.<\/p>\n

The RAMI Marine Robots competition builds on the experience of the European Robotics League (ERL) Emergency competitions. The European Robotics League is an innovative concept for robot competitions which stems from its predecessors, the euRathlon and RoCKIn competitions, and focuses on tasks that\u00a0emergency response\u00a0robots execute in a realistic\u00a0emergency environment.

The RAMI Physical Campaign for Marine Robots 2022 has also been an ERL Emergency Local Tournament on the ERL Emergency Robots (ERL-ER) Season 2021-2022.<\/p>\n

The competition was held in the CMRE seawater basin, offering the competitors a realistic setting.<\/p>\n

Teams were ranked on three different task benchmarks (TBMs) and three functionality benchmarks (FBMs).<\/p>\n

The TBMs are:<\/p>\n
