In a soccer robot game, the environment is highly competitive and dynamic. In order to work in the dynamically changing environment, the decision-making system of a soccer robot system should have the features of -exibility and on-line adaptation. This paper proposed a strategy-based decision-making system for a soccer robot system. The decision system is based on the proposed self-organizing f...

In this paper we present a framework for robot selflocalization in the robocup middle size league. This framework comprises an algorithm for robust selflocalization and a set of benchmarks which can be used offline to test other algorithms and to compare their outcomes with our results. The algorithm is part of our competition team BrainstormersTribots which won the Robocup German Open 2004. Th...

Soccer robot is a challenging platform for multi-agent research, involving topics such as real-time image processing and control, robot path planning, obstacle avoidance and machine learning. A soccer robot has to take an appropriate decision based on environment situation. With the role of a robot fixed as goalkeeper, the supervisor, according to the game situation, assigns the role of attacki...

A soccer robot system consists of multi-agents with highly coordinated operations and movements so as to fulfill specific objectives, even under adverse situations. The coordination of multiagents is associated with lot of supplementary work in advance. The associated issues are position correction, prevention of communication congestion, local information sensing in addition to the need for im...

The paper presents design and implementation of embedded control system, communication system, and strategies control algorithms for the robot soccer team. Our research work is focused on advanced hardware and software concept of robot units for the robot soccer and low level strategy algorithms. Developed robots contain powerful and safe hardware components, communication module and software s...

This paper describes the CAMBADA Middle Size robotic soccer team for the purpose of qualification to RoboCup’2014. During the last year, improvements have been made in a significant number of components of the robot. Most important changes include the ongoing implementation of a new platform, implementation of a new modular vision system and the use of new digital cameras, ball detection in 3D ...

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 RoboCup Middle-Size League (MSL) is one of the founding leagues of the annual RoboCup competition. Ever since its birth it has been a league where development of hardand software happens simultaneously in a real-world decentralized multi-robot soccer setting. Over the years the MSL achieved scientific results in robust design of mechatronic systems, sensor-fusion, tracking, world modelling ...

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 ...

This paper describes the CAMBADA Middle Size robotic soccer team for the purpose of qualification to RoboCup’2013. During the last year, improvements have been made in a significant number of components of the robot. Most important changes include the ongoing implementation of a new platform, implementation of a new modular vision system and the use of new digital cameras, ball detection in 3D ...
