A Segway-based Human-Robot Soccer Team
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new RoboCup soccer league is being developed, focussing on human-robot interaction. In this league each team consists of both human players, mounted on Segway HT scooters, and a robotic version of the Segway; both human and robot players must cooperate to score goals. This paper presents details of the physical design of our autonomous Segway Soccer robot and the modified Segway scooter that is ridden by the human teammate. Our approach was demonstrated in a series of a Segway Soccer exhibition games at the 2005 RoboCup American Open in Atlanta, Georgia.

Development of a Soccer-Playing Dynamically-Balanced Mobile Robot
In this paper, we make two contributions. First, we present a new domain, called Segway Soccer, for investigating the coordination of dynamically formed, mixed human-robot teams within the realm of a team task that requires real-time decision making and response. Segway Soccer is a game of soccer between two teams consisting of Segway riding humans and Segway RMP-based robots. We believe Segway...
متن کاملBuilding of a Heterogeneous Segway Soccer Team towards a Peer-to-Peer Human Robot
Robotic soccer is an adversarial multi-agent research domain, in which issues of perception, multi-agent coordination and team strategy are explored. One area of interest investigates heterogeneous teams of humans and robots, where the teammates must coordinate not as master and slave, but as equal participants. We research this peer-to-peer question within the domain of Segway soccer, where te...
متن کاملSkill Acquisition and Use for a Dynamically-Balancing Soccer Robot
Dynamically-balancing robots have recently been made available by Segway LLC, in the form of the Segway RMP (Robot Mobility Platform). We have addressed the challenge of using these RMP robots to play soccer, building up upon our extensive previous work in this multi-robot research domain. In this paper, we make three contributions. First, we present a new domain, called Segway Soccer, for inve...

The Segway Human Transporter (HT) is a one person dynamically selfbalancing transportation vehicle. The Segway Robot Mobility Platform (RMP) is a modification of the HT capable of being commanded by a computer for autonomous operation. With these platforms, we propose a new domain for human-robot coordination through a competitive game: Segway Soccer. The players include robots (RMPs) and human...
