         ACS NSW AISIG - Artificial Intelligence - Monthly Meeting

Date:     Wednesday 29th November 2000.

Time:     6:30pm till 8:00pm & dinner afterwards.

Topic:     Quadruped Robots That Play Soccer

 RoboCup is an international robot soccer competition whose aim
 is to encourage advanced research in mobile robots.  CSE has
 entered teams in the Sony legged robot league for the 1999 comp-
 etition in Stockholm and the 2000 competition in Melbourne. In
 1999 we were runners up and in 2000 we blitzed the opposition to
 easily win the championship. For more information see
 http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~robocup or
 http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~claude

 This talk is an overview and technical presentation, explaining
 how the robots were programmed. It will include colour slides,
 video clips and a simulation to help illustrate the concepts.
 We also propose to run a live soccer match with 4 robots on the
 soccer field which will be set up in our lab next to the seminar
 room.

Speaker: Prof. Claude Sammut

 Claude Sammut is Professor of Computer Science & Engineering at
 UNSW and Head of the Artificial Intelligence Research Group. His
