- Abstract:
Humanoid robots are enjoying increasing popularity as a research tool.
As step towards the long-term goal of winning against the FIFA world
champion, the RoboCup Federation added in 2002 a league for humanoid
robots to its annual soccer competitions. In this paper, the Humanoid
League competitions that took place so far are reviewed. The different
approaches for the design of robot hardware and the software for
perception and behavior control of soccer playing humanoid robots are
discussed. The paper concludes with an outlook to the future of the
RoboCup Humanoid League.
