Abstract

In 2015 and 2016, the RoboCup Standard Platform League’s major rule changes were mostly concerned with the appearance of important game elements, changing them towards a setup that is more similar to normal football games, for instance a black and white ball and white goals. Furthermore, the 2016 Outdoor Competition was held in a glass hall and thus under natural lighting conditions. These changes rendered many previously established approaches for perception and state estimation useless. In this paper, we present multiple approaches to cope with these challenges, i. e. a color classification for natural lighting conditions, an approach to detect black and white balls, and a self-localization that relies on complex field features that are based on field lines. This combination of perception and state estimation approaches enabled our robots to preserve their high performance in this more challenging new environment and significantly contributed to our success at RoboCup 2016.

Fußnoten
1
Actually, we got two, but both were the result of human errors, as we confirmed from analyzing video footage and log files.
 
2
Saturated, but not green, i. e. not the field color.
 
3
Unfortunately, the AVX extensions are not supported by the NAO’s CPU.
 
4
The YHS2 conversion is inspired by a discussion found in the internet at http://​forum.​doom9.​org/​showthread.​php?​t=​162053.
 
5
The third-placed Nao-Team HTWK was not analyzed, because they only provided binary information in the standard communication’s field ballAge.
