Khatam University's Robotics Team Crowned World Champion at RoboCup 2025

According to Khatam University’s Public Relations Department, the week-long event, held in Brazil from July 14 to 21, drew elite teams from leading nations in robotics—Japan, China, and India among them—all vying for excellence in a field where precision and innovation reign supreme.

Khatam University's team, known as Timrad, clinched victory with a commanding total of 63 points across three rigorous rounds. Their closest rivals, Aichi University of Technology from Japan and International University of Information Technology from Hyderabad, India, took second and third places respectively.

The RoboCup Rescue Simulation League is more than a competition—it is a visionary initiative born of real-world urgency. In response to natural disasters, it fosters education and research into disaster response technologies. Participants immerse themselves in a complex simulated environment where rescue strategies are tested, refined, and evaluated—measuring the readiness of systems involving ambulances, police, and firefighting units in life-saving scenarios.

This milestone victory is not only a moment of pride for Iran’s scientific community, but also a testament to the dynamic synergy between academia and industry. The achievement was made possible through the fruitful collaboration between Khatam University and the innovative tech firm Dotin, reflecting the growing power of cooperative innovation on the international stage.
