Abstract
This paper is a working progress that introduces the actual state of the development of Uniovi RoboCup Team’s robot for RoboCup@Home. The discussion is based on different unexplored and unprecedented ideas embodied in the terms Efficient Robotics and Green Bots. The robot design aims to find some advantages over other robots that participate in this competition, basically in the fields of safety, efficiency and compactness. We show how the concept design of the robot overcomes the limitations of other robots and some future line works are set out to determine the principal length of the jointed bars and the stroke of linear actuators needed, as well as sizing these elements to withstand stresses using recycled materials. The bases for the control system of the robot are also established to be developed in future works.
