Modeling Observation Uncertainty for Soccer Playing Humanoid Robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
In recent years, humanoid robot soccer robots have shown increasingly robust and fast locomotion, making perception, world modeling and behavior control important. In this paper, we present the world modeling approach of the Darmstadt Dribblers humanoid robot team, which won the competitions in the RoboCup Humanoid KidSize League in 2009 and 2010. The paper focuses on modeling observation uncertainties originating from different contributing factors centrally in one module. This allows different state estimators to use this data in a consistent way, independently of the specific state estimation approach used.

PSO-Based Path Planning Algorithm for Humanoid Robots Considering Safety
In this paper we introduce an improvement in the path planning algorithm for the humanoid soccer playing robot which uses Ferguson splines and PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization). The objective of the algorithm is to find a path through other playing robots to the ball, which should be as short as possible and also safe enough. Ferguson splines create preliminary paths using random generated para...

With advances in walking abilities of autonomous soccer playing humanoid robots, the world modeling and state estimation problem moves into focus, as only sufficiently accurate and robust modeling allows to leverage improved locomotion capabilities. A novel approach for dense grid-based obstacle mapping in dynamic environments with an additional application for automatic gaze control is present...
متن کاملPlaying Soccer with Humanoid Robots
As step towards the long-term goal of winning against the FIFA world champion, the RoboCup Federation added in 2002 a league for humanoid robots to its annual soccer competitions. Now, the young Humanoid League raised the bar again. After preliminary competitions, for the first time, soccer games with humanoid robots were played in 2005. This article describes the technology of the humanoid soc...
متن کاملThe challenge of motion planning for humanoid robots playing soccer
Motion planning for humanoids suffers from the high dimensionality of the configuration space. Moreover, the need to satisfy dynamic and static constraints increases the overall difficulty. While the above challenges hold for any humanoid robot, the soccer scenario adds difficulties narrowly addressed in humanoids motion planning research. Dynamic environments with active opponents, the require...
متن کاملGetting Upright: Migrating Concepts and Software from Four-Legged to Humanoid Soccer Robots
Besides the construction of the robots, the development of control software and tools for simulation and debugging are major topics of interest in the domain of soccer playing humanoid robots. In the RoboCup Four-Legged League, the whole research has—due to the existence of a standard platform—been focused on software development since many years. Therefore, a migration of successful software s...
