In this article, we describe our work using Sony’s legged robots to participate at the RoboCup-98 legged robot demonstration and competition. Robotic soccer represents a challenging environment for research in systems with multiple robots that need to achieve concrete objectives, particularly in the presence of an adversary. Furthermore, RoboCup offers an excellent opportunity for robot entertainment. We introduce the RoboCup context and briefly present Sony’s legged robot. We developed a vision-based navigation and a Bayesian localization algorithm. Team strategy is achieved through predefined behaviors and learning by instruction.}, number={1}, journal={AI Magazine}, author={Fujita, Masahiro and Veloso, Manuela M. and Uther, William and Asada, Minoru and Kitano, Hiroaki and Hugel, Vincent and Bonnin, Patrick and Bouramoue, Jean-Christophe and Blazevic, Pierre}, year={2000}, month={Mar.}, pages={47} }
