“…Due to the size and power requirements of the robot, a solenoid solution is clearly inappropriate. Motor based approaches, such as the rotating bar of or the driven plate of [3,10], although simple lack the power transfer capabilities at the needed size or raise significant safety concerns. This leaves a spring based solution, or a pneumatic one.…”

Abstract-In this paper, we make two contributions. First, we present a new domain, called Segway Soccer, for investigating the coordination of dynamically formed, mixed human-robot teams within the realm of a team task that requires real-time decision making and response. Segway Soccer is a game of soccer between two teams consisting of Segway riding humans and Segway RMP-based robots. We believe Segway Soccer is the first game involving both humans and robots in cooperative roles and with similar capabilities. In conjunction with this new domain, we present our work towards developing a soccer playing robot using the Segway RMP platform and vision as its primary sensing modality. As Segway Soccer is set in the outdoors, we have developed novel vision algorithms to adapt to changes in lighting conditions. We present the domain of Segway Soccer, its inherent challenges, and our work towards this goal.

Public reporting burden for the collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Keywords: games, mobile manipulation, mobile robots AbstractThe Segway™ LLC company has provided a robust mobility platform on which to research human/robot coordination in an adversarial environment. The Segway Human Transport (HT) is a one person dynamically self-balancing transportation vehicle. The Segway Robot Mobility Platform (RMP) is a modification of the Human Transporter capable of being programmed for autonomous operation. With these platforms, human/robot coordination is being investigated through the competitive game, Segway Soccer. The game is played between robots (RMPs) and humans (riding HTs), who can be teammates or opponents. The rules of the game are a combination of soccer and ultimate Frisbee rules. This paper describes the design of the mechanical systems necessary to allow the Segway RMP to safely and effectively play a competitive game of Segway Soccer along with humans. Specifically, the challenge of designing a soccer ball manipulation/kicking system is described in depth.
