Organizers: Dr. Alexander Kleiner and Dr. Sven Behnke

Time and Location

Time: Wednesday 14:00-18:00
Introductory meeting: Wednesday, April 14st 2005, 13:00

Description

The laboratory provides motivated students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge on the development of autonomous agents in the context of RoboCup. This includes topic from the areas of Artificial Intelligence, image/sensor processing, real time systems and control engineering. For a more detailed description of RoboCup, have a look at the official homepage www.robocup.org.

Within this exercises, students learn to program robots that are simulated in a modified version of the computer game "Unreal Tournament 2003". They have to simulate either robots that have to find victims in a disaster are (RoboCupRescue) or humanoid robots that play soccer (RoboCupSoccer).
