Fetchit! Challenge
The competition involves having a Fetch Mobile Manipulator autonomously navigate to stations in a work cell, pick up items, operate basic machinery, place items into kits, and transport the finished kits to a drop-off location. The team that assembles the most kits within 45 minutes takes home a Mobile Manipulator!

Winners of 2019 Fetch it at ICRA. Sonia Chernova from Georgia Tech said, "We’re very excited to have won the FetchIt! challenge, it has allowed us to validate our research code in a complex domain. We can’t wait to continue our work with our newest Fetch robot.”
FetchResearch in Simulation
Both the Freight mobile robot base and the Fetch mobile manipulator have simulated counterparts using the Gazebo simulator.
