Abstract

Most of the robots in the ROBOCUP soccer league are made especially for the task of playing soccer. They use methods that are specifically designed for the soccer domain and would perhaps fail in other robotic testbeds such as the newly established ROBOCUP@HOME league without making fundamental changes throughout their entire software system. In contrast, our robots and the control software were designed with a broader field of application in mind. This paper sketches our way from the soccer application to the ROBOCUP@HOME league.
