Competition Introduction:
With the rapid development of intelligent technology and the continuous updating of educational concepts, robotics, as a synthesis of information technology, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, control theory, sensing technology, and artificial intelligence and other cutting-edge technologies, is also contributing to the education reform. In order to promote the development of robotics technology and cultivate students' innovation ability, a series of robotics competitions have emerged around the world. Robot soccer is a fundamental research topic in the field of artificial intelligence and robotics, and is an extremely challenging and highly technology-intensive project. It involves the following major research areas: robotics, mechatronics, microcontrollers, image processing and image recognition, knowledge engineering and experts.
The first live broadcast was made on British television in 1997. The program was broadcast in the UK and won the first ratings of its kind for 6 consecutive years. Now the program has been broadcast in 27 countries, including the United States, Germany, Italy, Sweden, the Netherlands, Norway, Australia, Japan and China. It is especially popular among local teenagers and adult male viewers. The introduction of the playoffs and finals has made the event a major tournament in the UK on a par with the Premier League and the NBA.
Composition of a robot:
The composition of a robot is very similar to that of a human. A typical robot has a movable body structure, a motor-like device, a sensing system, a power source, and a computer "brain" that controls all of these elements. Essentially, robots are human-made "animals," machines that mimic human and animal behavior.
At the heart of a robot is a high-performance processor made of pure silicon with a powerful intelligent recognition system and a field-of-view recognition system that can recognize moving objects within a human-like field of view
