Abstract

The main focus of the RoboCup competitions is the game of football (soccer), where the research goals concern cooperative multi-robot and multi-agent systems in dynamic environments. In RoboCup, self-localization techniques are crucial for robots to estimate their own position as well as the position of the goal and other robots before deciding on a strategy. This paper presents a self-localization technique using an omnidirectional camera for an autonomous soccer robot. We propose a self-localization method that uses the information on the white lines of the soccer field to recognize the robot position by optimizing the fitness function using a genetic algorithm. Through experiments we verify the robustness of the proposed method against noise and moving speed.
