Join the 4th Benchmark for Autonomous Robot Navigation (BARN) Challenge at ICRA 2025
Join the 4th Benchmark for Autonomous Robot Navigation (BARN) Challenge at ICRA 2025, a competition to navigate a Clearpath Jackal robot through 300 BARN environments and physical obstacle courses. Learn more and submit your navigation system at the competition website.
The 4th Benchmark for Autonomous Robot Navigation (BARN) Challenge is an exciting opportunity for roboticists to showcase their navigation systems in highly constrained environments. This competition, organized by Xuesu Xiao, Zifan Xu, Aniket Datar, Saad Abdul Ghani, and Peter Stone, is sponsored by Clearpath Robotics. The goal is to navigate a Clearpath Jackal robot through 300 BARN environments and physical obstacle courses as quickly as possible without collision. Participants can use any approaches, and the top teams in simulation will be invited to compete in the real world. Submit your navigation system here and learn more about the competition at the competition website.
