We had a more-rare-than-they-should-be social event for the lab, a halloween party on the 4th floor. We had a lot of guests from other labs and the food and entertainment was super. Let's do this more often hmm?

RoboCup vs. FIRA: Improving Robotics Competitions
Written by John Anderson   
Monday, 20 July 2009 08:51

We have had a couple of publications this year on improving robotics competitions to encourage greater breadth and adaptivity in entries. One of these, just presented at an associated IJCAI workshop, was mentioned in an article published in the well-known German technology review Heise Online. A reasonable English Translation is available (via google language tools).

We competed in both sizes of the humanoid leagues at RoboCup-2009, in Graz, Austria. While we did not make the finals in either league, we did get three games and into the second round in small-size soccer, and our large-size robot Archie walked publicly for the first time. Archie also attended a press conference in Vienna, and it was picked up in a short story with photographs by the Associated Press that appeared around the world. The Winnipeg Free Press version is below. There is an associated gallery and Video section for the tournament.

We had a camera crew filming in the lab for an upcoming Discovery Channel show on RoboCup. RoboCup 2009 is in Graz, Austria, and we are there from June 27-July 7. The Discovery Channel will apparently be filming us there as well. See the new gallery for more images. And thanks MC, for being the only one to have a decent camera with them!
A team of five from our lab will be entering in two different sizes of humanoid competition in Graz, from June 27-July 7. Follow the action on the RoboCup 2009 Website.

About Us

The Autonomous Agents Laboratory is one of the research laboratories within the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manitoba, and is directed by Dr. John Anderson and Dr. Jacky Baltes. The goal of our work is the improvement of technology surrounding hardware and software agents as well as the development of applications employing these technologies. We are especially interested in cooperation in multi-agent settings, and the infrastructure necessary to support this and other forms of social interaction in intelligent systems.
