Simulated Soccer using CoroBots

Purpose

Simulated Soccer is based on a competition held at RoboCup in Atlanta in July 2007. The playing field, referee and a sample soccer player can be downloaded from the MRDS Downloads page.

Description

This chapter includes a new soccer player service based on the CoroBot.

CoroBot Soccer

The CoroBot players are actually quite dumb, but surprisingly they still manage to score goals. The Goalies don't do anything much.

The Soccer Simulation includes a Referee service that can be used to control the game:

When you start a new game, the Referee searches all of the available services looking for soccer player services.

In the Referee window, you can pick up and move the ball and the players, and also penalize a player for misbehaving.
