Committee of the Humanoid League setting up the virtual soccer 
competition in 2021. The main responsibility of the student is to set up 
and tune the virtual environment and implement an automatic 
refereeing/game state management system for the RoboCup 2021 virtual 
soccer competition. The student will work in close collaboration with 
Cyberbotics, the developers of the RoboCup Humanoid League simulation 
system.

The successful candidate must fulfill the following requirements:
* Strong programming skills in Python and C++
* Experience implementing virtual environments and writing robot control 
software for Webots

The student assistant would need to be available for about 10 hours of 
work per week from March to June 2021 (four-months contract). Ideally, 
the student assistant would be available for a follow-up project in 
spring 2022.

The work will be conducted on behalf of and paid for by the RCF. The 
student will enter into a freelance work contract with the RCF. The 
student assistant must hence be able to work self-employed/as a
