A robot football game as a typical multi-agent system requires several robots to accomplish a common goal by cooperation in an environment full of real-time antagonism, which provides a rational platform for studying robot cooperation. Through a study of cooperation and application of multi-agent system, this paper applied a real-time agent model to improve teamwork.

This paper describes a model for the emergence of a visual communication language in a team of robot football. The method is based on using visual stimuli for the transmission of information between players. In order to represent visual stimuli and their meanings, the paper presents visual signs as an abstract and grounded representation. The model and methods presented here are experimentally ...
