Carpe Noctem Robotic Soccer

On behave of Nokia Siemens Networks and Telefonica, Carpe Noctem provided four robots during the Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona. As a showcase for the new LTE technology, they were equipped with LTE devices and streamed live video feeds from the Placa Espanya to inside the fair hall. One of the press responses can be found here: elmundo.es.

Finally, we released Andi’s shiny Plan Designer, which we use since the German Open 2009 to devise our strategies. It’s free, it’s open source, and it’s here. Of course, in the same as the underlying theory, it is not specific to RoboCup, soccer or even sports, but for general multi-agent applications.

Endi finally finished composing our Best-of-WC09 video. So without further ado; here it is:

We lost the match against Tech United but the match was really nice!. For more information please have a look at https://phbaer.net/2009/07/04/rc2009-match-against-tech-united-2.

We’re out of the tournament now and finished (in the worst case) on the 6th place. Actually a quite good result, isn’t it? :) That’s for all the support we got in the last months and years. We’re really looking forward to next year’s championships, even though we might be unable to attend the upcoming tournaments. It was a great time, though :)

We lost the match against 1. RFC Stuttgart (as expected with lots of bad luck). For more information, please, as every time, have a look at http://phbaer.net/2009/07/04/rc2009-match-against-1-rfc-stuttgart-2.
