The CS Freiburg Team: Playing Robotic Soccer Based on An Explicit World Model

摘要

Robotic soccer is an ideal task to demonstrate new techniques and explore new problems. Moreover, problems and solutions can easily be communicat- ed because soccer is a well-known game. Our intention in building a robotic soccer team and participating in RoboCup-98 was, first, to demon- strate the usefulness of the self-localization meth- ods we have developed. Second, we wanted to show that playing soccer based on an explicit world model is much more effective than other methods.
