FC Portugal - High-Level Coordination Methodologies in Soccer Robotics

摘要

This chapter presents the research performed in the context of FC Portugal project in the areas of agent architectures, coordination methodologies, coaching and agent development tools. FC Portugal's research has been integrated in several teams that have participated with considerable success in distinct RoboCup leagues and competitions. The chapter includes a brief description of the main competitions in which FC Portugal has participated with focus in the simulation leagues and related challenges. It also presents some of the developed techniques and results achieved in controlled experiments. These results, together with the impressive record of results achieved by FC Portugal teams in RoboCup competitions show that the techniques developed can significantly improve any soccer robotics team performance.
