This document provides an overview of RoboCup, an international robotics competition that began in 1997. The goal of RoboCup is to develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can defeat the human world soccer champions by 2050. It discusses the different leagues in RoboCup including simulation, small-size robots, middle-size robots, standard platform, and humanoid leagues. It also describes the basic rules of soccer, components of the robotic players like sensors and effectors, and how the competition helps advance artificial intelligence and robotics research.

- 1. An Introduction to RoboCup By: Noureen Mehmood Farkhanda Kiran
- 2. Overview of RoboCup The Robot World Cup Initiative “By the year 2050, develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can win against the human world soccer champion team.” A standard problem for AI research
- 3. Overview of RoboCup Started in 1992 as the Robot J-League (Japan) First games and conferences in 1997
- 5. Overview of RoboCup After three months of Kasparov's defeat In Japan, the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 40 teams of robotics experts participated in the world's first Robotics Cup. A team of fully autonomous humanoid robot soccer players shall win a soccer game, complying with the official rules of FIFA, against the winner of the most recent World Cup.
- 6. Overview of RoboCup Dynamo Project, the world's first attempt at an autonomous robotic soccer team. The first Robotics Cup in 1997, the competition has grown tremendously: at the 2013 RoboCup
- 7. Cont… Soccer may be called "The Beautiful Game," The players as closer to "five year olds" than Ronaldo's "It’s not just the soccer domain, it’s really thinking about artificial intelligence, robotics, and what they can do in a more general context."
- 8. • Robotic soccer helps scientists gain a better understanding of human intelligence: • How we balance? • How we see? • How we process information?
- 9. SOCCER – A NEWTOY PROBLEM FOR AI Environment dynamic Sensor Readings non-symbolic Control distributed Physical Agent yes Time Critical yes
- 10. The Field of Play Rectangular field Two goals and field lines-5 cm wide The longer outer field lines are called touch lines the shorter outer field lines are called goal lines.
- 11. RoboCup Soccer RoboCup Soccer is divided into the following leagues: Simulation League Small-size Robot League Middle-size Robot League Standard Platform League Humanoid League
- 12. Simulation League • Independently moving software players (agents) play soccer on a virtual field inside a computer • There are sub leagues: 2D, 3D, 3D development and Mixed Reality (formerly calledVisualization)
- 14. Small-size Robot League • Small robots of no more than 18 cm in diameter play soccer with an orange golf ball in teams of up to 5 robots with the size of 6.5m x 4.5m. • 10-minute halves.
- 16. Middle-size Robot League RoboCup Soccer Middle-Size more than 50 cm diameter play soccer in teams of up to 6 robots with an orange soccer ball on a field the size of 12x18 meters. 15-minute halves. Robots can use wireless networking to communicate.
- 18. Standard Platform League The robots operate fully autonomously, i.e. there is no external control, neither by humans nor by computers. The Standard Platform League replaces the highly successful Four-Legged League. In the league all teams use identical (i.e. standard) robots.

- 21. Humanoid League This league is autonomous humanoid robots play in matches as well as "Technical Challenges". This league has two subcategories: KidSize, 40-90 cm height TeenSize, 80-140 cm height AdultSize, 130-180 cm height
- 23. Sony Aibo (“Four -Legged”) League Standard Platform League The teams concentrate on software development In 1999.
- 25. RoboCup Software Simulator Royal Melborune Institute of Technology (RMIT) operates the RoboCup Practice Server simulator Georgia Institute of Technology developed JavaSoccer, a Java-based simulator for real robot small-size league.

- 28. Sensors These consist of objects which include a sense method, as well as a name for a hash table key. Each is designed to determine the boolean outcome of a specific predicate, such as can- see-goal.
