Abstract :
A new robot soccer system is proposed to increase the interaction between the operator and the robot soccer system. The multiple robots are commanded by a teleoperation function. When a robot is commanded with a joystick, other robots are running by the pre-programmed cooperating strategies. To develop the interactive robot soccer system, robust position/orientation sensing techniques have been developed. In order to make the teleoperation of the soccer robot more intuitive it is proposed to use a joystick control with respect to ground-based coordinates. To allow wireless and isolated teleoperation for each playground an infrared communication system has been adopted. To minimize the maintenance a continuous power supply system from the ground has also been developed
