[robocup-worldwide] "URGENT" - Call for historical RoboCup Video Footage

[April Foster]

Dear RoboCup Community,
> 
> This message is about the call for Jubilee videos for IROS, which asks
> for short videos illustrating the history of intelligent robotics in
> the past 25 years:
> 
>  http://www.iros2012.org/site/node/38
> 
> The deadline is May 15, 2012.
> 
> We are planning to submit 2 or 3 videos on the history of RoboCup:
> 
> 1. One on the history of the RoboCup Soccer leagues: small-size,
> middle-size, standard platform league (AIBOs and NAOs), and humanoid
> league.
> 
> (We will consider a separate video just about the humanoid league,
> depending on the footage we get.)
> 
> 2. One on the history of RoboCup Robot Rescue and RoboCup @Home
> Leagues.
> 
> Peter Stone and Manuela Veloso will generate the videos from your inputs with the help of
> April Foster. The way to submit your videos is to put them on
> dropbox and share that folder with April, april.robocup at gmail.com
> 
> We ask you to put your videos on dropbox and share them with April
> within the next week:
> 
> - short video footage - highlights - of games of your team, other
> teams, or your league.  Please especially consider videos you have
> from past years - as old as possible - and showing the evolution of
> your team through time.
> 
> - the RoboCup year of the footage, the team name, the team leader,
> and the institution (we need this informaation for the credits)
> 
> - a brief explanation of the footage selected in terms of why it is
> interesting from a technical point of view (e.g., nice obstacle
> avoidance, first chip-kick pass, scored goal with a pass, great
> defense, communication between two robots, etc.)
> 
> - name your footage with year, league (SSL, MSL, SPL, HUM,
> Rescue, Home), team name, and the number of the submission (e.g.,
> 2006_SSL_CMDragons_1.mpeg and 2006_CMDragons_2.mpeg)
> 
> 
> Each of your highlights should be at most 30 seconds to have a chance
> to be included in our final collection.
> 
> We will make this email available to robocup-worldwide over the
> weekend, but we wanted to let you know first.
> 
> Thanks!
>       Manuela and Peter
