Abstract

This paper addresses an estimation problem of the ball’s state of spin in RoboCup Small Size League (SSL). A spinning ball varies its speed after the ball bounces off the floor. This paper proposes an image-based estimation method of the ball’s state of spin, in particular, by using inertia feature of co-occurrence matrix of the image sequence. The effectiveness of our proposed method is shown by some experiments.
