RoboCup is an annual robot soccer competition that was invented in 1995 and held for the first time in 1997. RoboCup is the short form of Robot Soccer World Cup (German about: Robot Soccer World Cup ). The RoboCup world championships are held annually at different locations. Around 2000 scientists and students from all over the world meet to let their teams compete against each other. During the competitions, a congress will take place at the same time, at which new scientific findings from the field of artificial intelligence and robotics will be exchanged. In the meantime, the mobile robots also fight other competitions than football .

The 23 World Championships up to and including 2019 were held in Japan (4), France, Sweden, Australia (2), USA (2), Italy, Portugal, Germany (2), China (2), Austria, Singapore and Turkey , Mexico, Netherlands, Brazil and Canada. In this list, the order is that of the first event in the respective country and the number in brackets for individual countries indicates their multiple occurrences.

In 2006 the World Cup took place parallel to the Soccer World Cup in Germany .

The initiator was Hiroaki Kitano from Sony.

background

“RoboCup is an international scientific initiative with the goal to advance the state of the art of intelligent robots. When established in 1997, the original mission was to field a team of robots capable of winning against the human soccer World Cup champions by 2050. "

“RoboCup is an international, scientific initiative with the aim of advancing the state of the art in intelligent robots. The original purpose when it was introduced in 1997 was to have a team of robots set up by 2050 at the latest, which should be able to beat the human world championship team. "

Leagues

2D simulation

Two teams each with 11 completely autonomous players / programs compete against each other. This happens purely virtually on a special SoccerServer, whereby the teams can also be supported by an autonomous coach. Both viewing angles and simple physics are simulated. Due to the mechanical problems and the external influences with which robotics still has to struggle, the methods of AI are used most heavily here.

3D simulation

The so-called 3D server, which features a complex physics engine, is quite new. This allows the ball to be moved in three dimensions, so that more realistic moves are possible than is the case with 2D simulation. A beta version of the server was introduced in early 2004. The first official competition took place in Lisbon in 2004.

Small size

Two teams each with five small robots compete against each other. The robots are controlled by radio from a computer that detects the game with the help of cameras that are mounted four meters above the playing field. Due to the frequently used omnidirectional drive and the central control by one or more external computers, the most dynamic game can be observed here.

Middle size

Brainstormers Tribots ( University of Osnabrück ) against RFC Stuttgart ( University of Stuttgart ) in the RoboCupSoccer Middle-Size League at the RoboCup German Open 2009.

The robots in this league are autonomous compared to the small size and have their own sensors, such as an omnidirectional camera . Since the rules that affect the structure of the playing field are constantly changing, the robots used to have difficulties locating themselves on the field. Therefore, this so-called supreme discipline was rather sluggish for a long time. By using omnidirectional cameras, most teams have now overcome this problem. The robots now often travel at more than two meters per second.

Standard Platform League

In this league, so-called naos are used instead of self-made robots . These Aldebaran robots have numerous sensors and are a crowd puller because of their cute nature. The robots act autonomously and are allowed to communicate with each other via WLAN.

Before 2008, the Standard Platform League was still called Four Legged because the robot dog Aibo was used by Sony. However, Sony stopped production of the Aibos at the end of March 2006.

Humanoid

World's first demonstration game in the Humanoid League at the RoboCup German Open 2005.

In the humanoid league, robots with human-like body shapes and corresponding sensory equipment compete against each other. The robots must be completely autonomous. The competitions are held in three size classes: KidSize (<60 cm), TeenSize (100–120 cm) and AdultSize (> 130 cm). There are penalty shootouts (AdultSize), soccer games (KidSize and TeenSize) and technical competitions that change every year. The research questions examined include dynamic walking on two legs, ball manipulation, visual perception of the game situation and the coordination of team play.

Rescue

A robot from the Warwick Mobile Robotics team from the University of Warwick navigates the steps marked in red at the RoboCupRescue Arena of the RoboCup German Open 2009.

This league does not deal with football like the others, but rather researches methods that can be used during disasters. In the simulation league, the coordination of rescue units in a devastated city is rehearsed, while in the robot league, mobile robots are used to independently search for survivors in constructed devastated rooms.

@Home

This league, which took place for the first time in 2006, deals with the development of future applications of autonomous mobile robots in daily life. The scenario is the model of an apartment consisting of living room and kitchen in which the robots have to perform different tasks. The focus here is on human-machine interaction.

Logistics

The Logistics League has been one of the major leagues since 2012. The aim of this league is the development of autonomously acting robots to control the flow of materials and information in industrial production systems.

Junior

The Junior League is aimed at schoolchildren up to and including 20 years of age and would like to get young people excited about robotics and IT. In the three sub-leagues OnStage, Rescue (Line and Maze) and Soccer there are two levels of difficulty: Entry and Primary ( Rescue ), Primary and Secondary (OnStage), 1vs1 and 2vs2 (Soccer) .

In the OnStage League , the students let the robots (sometimes together with their builders) perform a choreography. A jury evaluates the results, for example, according to creativity.

In the Rescue Line League , the robots have to follow a line and at the end recognize and rescue a “victim”. This is made more difficult by ramps, gaps and obstacles on and next to the line.

When participating in the Rescue Maze League , the robots have to find "buried subjects" in a labyrinth and signal their position. Further points can be collected by dropping so-called "rescue kits" or by overcoming obstacles.

Finally, there is the Soccer League , in which in one class two robots (maximum 22 cm in diameter; 22 cm in height) autonomously compete against each other on a black-to-white playing field (1 vs. 1). This league no longer exists in the official competitions. In the other class, a team consists of two robots (22 cm in diameter and height), and this league must be subdivided again. Soccer A is a playing field with boards, where Soccer B has an out zone, which makes programming even more difficult (2 vs 2). As of the 2013 rules, however, there will only be Soccer B. The game is played with a ball about the size of a tennis ball, which is colored bright orange for easier identification.
