Abstract
The VUB AI-lab team is mainly interested in the two loosely linked aspects of on-board control and heterogeneity. One major effort for fostering both aspects within RoboCup's small robots league is our development of a robot construction-kit, allowing to implement a wide range of players with on-board control. For the '99 competition, the existing RoboCube controller-hardware has been further improved. In addition, some solid and precise mechanical building-blocks were developed, which can easily be mounted on differently shaped bottomplates. On top of these engineering efforts, we report here a computational inexpensive but efficient algorithm for motion-control including obstacle avoidance. Furthermore, we address the issue of increased difficulties of coordinating multiple teams due to the possible variations based on heterogeneity, and we present how suitable schemes can be integrated within a framework exploiting on-board control. 1 Introduction As we already pointed out in a co...
