Study and Implementation of a Robot Soccer System based on the CDIO approach

Soccer robots have been frequently used to validate models of multi-agent systems, involving collaboration among the agents. For this purpose, many researchers in robotics have been developing robotic soccer teams which compete in events such as RoboCup and FIRA. This study aims to explore a robot soccer system in which two prototypes of soccer robots are fabricated. A global vision system is implemented to collect real-time positions and orientations of the ball and robots. Then, their data is transferred to a host computer and processed. Finally, kinematic commands are sent to the robots to perform desired motions. The results of this study have successfully implemented the soccer robot system.
