[robocup-nao] B-Human code release and team report 2010

[Thomas Röfer]

Hi,

the team B-Human proudly announces the availability of our 2010 code release at

http://www.b-human.de/en/publications/

The release comes with a comprehensive team report (127 pages) that explains how to use our code and how it works. The software released is a
cleaned-up version of the system we used at RoboCup 2010, but with only the behavior of a very basic striker that was not part of our original system. However, the team report describes the whole system that was used in Singapore.

Our software is released with its own 3-D simulator and build system. Both Microsoft Windows and Linux are fully supported.

Please note that our new license requires that all teams using our code have to announce this fact by May 1, 2011 in the mailing list robocup-nao at cc.gatech.edu. This is independent from any requirements the TC might come up with for the qualification process.

Although it is still possible to base your whole system on our code release, we advise against it. Past experiences have shown that teams setting up their own systems have more potential for being successful. Therefore the code release is primarily meant as a source of information. You can read the code, install it on your robots, and play with it to analyze how things work. After all, the code can answer questions in a lot more detail than our report is able to do.

Have fun,

Team B-Human
