RoboCup
RoboCup is an annual international robotics competition founded in 1996 by a group of university professors (including Hiroaki Kitano, Manuela M. Veloso, and Minoru Asada). The aim of the competition is to promote robotics and AI research by offering a publicly appealing – but formidable – challenge. The name ''RoboCup'' is a contraction of the competition's full name, "Robot Soccer World Cup” (based on the FIFA World Cup), but there are many other areas of competition such as "RoboCupRescue", "RoboCup@Home" and "RoboCupJunior". Peter Stone is the current president of RoboCup, and has been since 2019. The official goal of the project: :"By the middle of the 21st century, a team of fully autonomous humanoid robot soccer players shall win a soccer game, complying with the official rules of FIFA, against the winner of the most recent World Cup." RoboCup leagues The contest currently has six major domains of competition, each with a number of leagues and sub-leagues. Th ...

RoboCup Middle Size League
As one of the founding leagues of the international RoboCup initiative, the RoboCup Middle Size League (MSL) robot soccer competition has been organised from 1997 onwards. On an indoor soccer field, with goals of reduced size, teams of five fully autonomous soccer playing robots compete against one another. No human intervention is allowed during a match, except to take robots on or from the field. Although limitations with respect to maximum size and weight are in place, teams are completely free to design both hardware and software. Rulebook As much as possible, rules are the same as the laws of human football. An official FIFA approved ball is used in matches, and rules with respect to tackles and controlling the ball apply to robot soccer similar to their equivalent rules in human soccer. Modifications with respect to the FIFA rulebook are the field dimensions, which are reduced to 12 m by 18 m, and the number of players per team, which is five in RoboCup MSL. Start ...

RoboCup Standard Platform League
The RoboCup Standard Platform League (SPL) is one of several leagues within RoboCup, an international competition with autonomous robotic soccer matches as the main event. Overview In the Standard Platform League all teams use identical (i.e., standard) robots, allowing the teams concentrate on software development rather than the mechanics of robots. The robots operate fully autonomously; i.e., there is no remote control by either humans or computers during the games. The League began as the Sony Four-Legged League in 1999 using the Sony AIBO. Initially a small number of teams were invited to join the league. In 2002, the league was opened and teams were allowed to apply through a qualification process. After Sony announced that it would discontinue production of the AIBO in 2006, the League searched for a new platform and decided on the Aldebaran Robotics humanoid NAO. In 2008, the League ran both AIBOs and Naos and was renamed the Standard Platform League. From 2009, only ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Minoru Asada
Minoru Asada (1953–present) is a Japanese engineer. He is a professor of Adaptive Machine Systems at the Graduate School of Engineering at Osaka University, Japan. He is a research leader for and director of neuroscience robotics and Constructive Developmental Science based on understanding the process of neuro-dynamics to social interaction. His research focuses on emergent robotics to better understand the interaction between the robot and its environment in an attempt to comprehend the complex cognitive processes in both natural and artificial systems. Early life Asada attended 7 years of school in Nagahama City in Japan; 6 in elementary and 1 in junior high school. His father was an employee of the Japan National Railroad (JNR), and was posted to the north part of Japan to Toyama Prefecture. After one year, his father had to move again, however, fortunately for Asada, his older brother had just gotten into Toyama University. This allowed Asada to complete his education in ...
