Vision system and game - Strategies for robotsoccer

The game robot soccer provides a good opportunity to implement and test the cooperative group behavior of mobile robots. In this contribution a robot soccer system (Kopacek, 2002; Putz, 2004; Wurzl, 2003 and 2005) will be described. The new software mainly consists, as usual, of a vision system, a communication module and a game strategy module. For the new system robots were developed and a vision system with a digital camera was implemented. The strategies for this new Multi Agent System (MAS) will be highlighted in this paper.
