Our Team

Who is C-PALB?

We are six students in the age of 15 to 19. Together we are the team C-PALB. We are the oldest team in the robotics workgroup of our school, the CJD Christophorusschule Königswinter.
In our early years, we started to built Lego robots and programmed easy tasks, but we improved every year. Now we are a completely independent  group, which builds autonomous robots themselves to play soccer with them on a competition called Robocup Junior.
Basically we meet every week on Fridays from 2 pm to about 8 or 9 pm (you are welcome to visit us, but please contact us first through E-Mail). We also meet really often on weekends and during holidays.
These are reasons why we became an independent team, which belongs to the world's strongest teams since a few years.

What does C-PALB do?

The team builts autonomous robots which play soccer against other teams.
We play in the Soccer B league, which means that we play on a bigger field without bounds.

We have recently published our latest Trailer with material from various competitions like the World Championship 2008 in Suzhou, China, the German Open 2008 and never before published scenes from our top-secret labs, which you can watch here.
