Robotic soccer is a challenging research domain which involves multiple agents that need to collaborate in an adversarial environment to achieve specific objectives. In this paper, we describe CMUnited, the team of small robotic agents that we developed to enter the RoboCup-97 competition. We designed and built the robotic agents, devised the appropriate vision algorithm, and developed and implemented algorithms for strategic collaboration between the robots in an uncertain and dynamic environment. The robots can organize themselves in formations, hold specific roles, and pursue their goals. In game situations, they have demonstrated their collaborative behaviors on multiple occasions. The robots can also switch roles to maximize the overall performance of the team. We present an overview of the vision processing algorithm which successfully tracks multiple moving objects and predicts trajectories. The paper then focusses on the agent behaviors ranging from low-level individual behaviors to coordinated, strategic team behaviors. CMUnited won the RoboCup-97 small-robot competition at IJCAI-97 in Nagoya, Japan.

Robotic soccer is a challenging research domain
which involves multiple agents that need to
collaborate in an adversarial environment to achieve
specific objectives. In this paper, we describe
CMUnited, the team of small robotic agents that we
developed to enter the RoboCup-97 competition. We
designed and built the robotic agents, devised the
appropriate vision algorithm, and developed and
implemented algorithms for strategic collaboration
between the robots in an uncertain and dynamic
environment. The robots can organize themselves in
formations, hold specific roles, and pursue their
goals. In game situations, they have demonstrated
their collaborative behaviors on multiple
occasions. The robots can also switch roles to
maximize the overall performance of the team. We
present an overview of the vision processing
algorithm which successfully tracks multiple moving
objects and predicts trajectories. The paper then
focusses on the agent behaviors ranging from
low-level individual behaviors to coordinated,
strategic team behaviors. CMUnited won the
RoboCup-97 small-robot competition at IJCAI-97 in
Nagoya, Japan.
