Shape Recognition and Enhanced Control Systems for Robot Soccer
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we report on the current developments of our Mirosot Robot Soccer team, the “Robocoasters”, in preparation for the FIRA Robot World Cup 2002 in Korea. We describe a number of unique enhancements to both the vision systems and the control system. Vision enhancements include a unique shape recognition system, expanded from recognition of three shapes to five shapes for the middle league competition. Control enhancements include improvements to our goalkeeper’s behaviour, attacker and the introduction of role swapping between the robots. Finally, we outline our research underway and proposed future research for the team.

Study of Evolutionary and Swarm Intelligent Techniques for Soccer Robot Path Planning
Finding an optimal path for a robot in a soccer field involves different parameters such as the positions of the robot, positions of the obstacles, etc. Due to simplicity and smoothness of Ferguson Spline, it has been employed for path planning between arbitrary points on the field in many research teams. In order to optimize the parameters of Ferguson Spline some evolutionary or intelligent al...

متن کاملEfficient object recognition for robot soccer
This paper presents an object recognition algorithm for robot soccer which is optimized to run on the Aldebaran Nao robot. The aim is to recognize the ball and the goals which have distinct colors. Another objective is to keep CPU utilization to a minimum since other routines will have to run simultaneously for the robot to operate. Different methods for image clustering and shape matching are ...
