Sixteen teams from across the globe came to Nagoya, Japan to participate in the third annual Amazon Robotics Challenge. Amazon sponsors the event to strengthen ties between the industrial and academic robotics communities and to promote shared and open solutions to some of the big puzzles in the field. The teams took home $270,000 in prizes.

Watch the video below to see these inventive teams – and their robots – in action.

Congratulations to this year’s winners from the Australian Centre for Robotic Vision. See the full results here.
