RoboRoos - was formed to participate in the Robot Soccer World Cup. Similar to the human game, robot soccer involves two teams of robots playing a game with rules similar to indoor soccer. In the small size league, the game is played on a field the size of a table tennis table, with five robots on each team.
Robots score goals by knocking a golf ball into a goal area at each end of the table.
An overhead vision system monitors the game and aids in the control of the robot. In the 1999 World Cup held in Stockholm, the team blasted through qualification rounds with a 50-1 goal difference over four games. Unfortunately, the team ran into troubles in the quarter final rounds and was eliminated. The playing team consists of five field robots and one specialised goal keeper robot. The robots have been designed with simplicity and agility in mind.
