YuMi Challenge
Do you want to win a summer internship with ABB?

ABB is one of the largest robotics manufacturers in the world. The legendary two-arms robot, the YuMi, was the first of its kind revolutionizing the way humans and robots collaborate.
Roboticists around the world have uploaded numerous videos showing the possibilities of YuMi as an inspiration for others.
Let this inspiration continue here and now with the Yumi challenge!
