ROBOCUP SOCCER STANDARD PLATFROM

The RoboCup Standard Platform League is a soccer league where all teams participate using the same robot, the NAO robot from United Robotics Group. This means that with the smartest software wins. These robots play fully autonomously and each one takes decisions separately from the others, but they still have to play as a team by using communications.

The teams play on a green field with white lines and goal posts, with no other landmarks, and the ball consists in a realistic white and black soccer one. These game characteristics generate a very challenging scenario, which allows improving the league every year.
