Implementation of high-voltage kicker system for “ROSTU” middle-size league robot soccer

Middle-size robot soccer is one of the divisions that competed in national events such as National Indonesia Robotics Competition and international competitions middle size league (MSL). One main components robots kicker system. The system expected to be high torque, robust, safe. In this work, a voltage designed evaluated substitute ROSTU's previous This solenoid-based works at 380V uses electromagnetic force principle move ball. performance criteria are it can ball with mass around 1 kg for minimum range 3 m control charging discharging process conditions. experiment results show 1.06 kg, difference kick distance from 100cm 350cm, monitoring information about capacitor status.
