چکیده

The UQ RoboRoos have been developed to participate in the RoboCup robot soccer small size league over several years. RoboCup 2001 saw a focus on the mechanical design of the RoboRoos, with the introduction of an omni-directional drive system and a high power kicker. The change in mechanical design had implications for the rest of the system particularly navigation and multi-robot planning. In addition, the overhead vision system was upgraded to improve reliability and robustness.

Multi-Robot Coordination in the Robot Soccer Environment

MAPS (Multi-Agent Planning system) is a system developed for multi-agent coordination developed for use in the robot soccer domain. The system operates without explicit communication of strategy between agents, relying upon observation of team members to produce meaningful coordinated behaviour. Each robot is coordinated with the others by MAPS choosing goal actions that most benefit the team. ...
