    The Chongqing University "BOBOCUP" team won the national championship in the agricultural robot—harvesting robot category at the 2026 China Robot Competition and RoboCup China, which concluded on October 18. This is the university's first championship at the event since it began participating in 2013. The harvesting category requires robots to complete tasks including autonomous navigation, intelligent obstacle avoidance, target recognition, fruit and vegetable grasping and harvesting, and collection at designated locations. Another team from the university, "Xunwo Haohan Xingkong," placed third in the five-finger dexterous manipulation artistic skills challenge. The finals brought together 2,000 teams and nearly 5,000 competitors.

    AgriVLN: A Vision-and-Language Navigation Benchmark and Method for Agricultural Robots

    This work proposes A2A, a vision-and-language navigation benchmark for agricultural robots, comprising 1,560 episodes across 6 classes of agricultural scenes, using step-by-step instructions and a continuous-action environment. Evaluation found that existing VLN methods perform well on short instructions but poorly on long instructions; to address this, the authors propose an STL module that decomposes complex instructions into lists of simple subtasks and integrates it into the NavGPT backbone, raising SR from 0.33 to 0.47 while NE slightly increases from 2.76 m to 2.91 m. Ablation studies and case analyses are also included.
