RoboCup
Welcome to RoboCup at FunPark, the ultimate destination for football enthusiasts of all ages! This open-air section of FunPark offers a unique opportunity to experience the beautiful football game in an entirely new way, under the open sky and alongside a team of specialized robots. RoboCup is designed as a vibrant, grassy pitch where the thrill of football meets cutting-edge technology. RoboCup is the heart of FunPark, a paradise for football fans who can play alongside robotic teammates or challenge them in thrilling matches. It’s a place where passion for the game meets robotic precision, elevating the traditional sports experience. RoboCup is divided into four distinct areas, each featuring different types of robotic players that cater to various aspects of soccer; small-size robots, middle-size robots, goalkeeper robots and humanoid robots. This section of FunPark is not just for the young or the athletic; it's for anyone who loves soccer and wants to engage with the sport in a novel way. Children, teens, adults, and seniors can find joy and excitement playing alongside or against our robotic players. The advantages of playing in RoboCup include not only the fun and excitement of the game but also the opportunity to engage in physical activity, teamwork, and strategic thinking in a unique and technologically advanced environment
Robots
Humanoid Robot
Legged robots, especially humanoid robots, are designed to mimic human-like movements. They often have legs with multiple degrees of freedom, allowing them to walk, run, and kick the ball like a human player
The picture of this robot and another one called NimbRo-OP2X Humanoid Soccer Robot which participated in RoboCup 2018, are shown in below
One real-world example of a soccer-playing robot is the DARwIn-OP (Dynamic Anthropomorphic Robot with Intelligence - Open Platform), developed by the Robotis company
ARTEMIS is a robot that aims to revolutionize the world of football. The name stands for Advanced Robotic Technology for Enhanced Mobility and Improved Stability

Goal Keeper
The Goalkeeper RoboCup at FunPark showcases specialized robots designed specifically to defend the goal in robotic football matches. These goalkeeper robots are engineered with advanced motion tracking and predictive algorithms, enabling them to react swiftly to incoming shots with high precision
Mechanical Design
Decision-Making Software
Vision System
The sturdy frame, constructed from lightweight yet high-strength materials, ensures stability and durability while withstanding powerful shots
At the heart of the robot lies the sophisticated AI software. This software analyzes the data collected by the vision system and, using complex algorithms, predicts the ball's path with exceptional accuracy
High-resolution cameras, coupled with advanced image recognition software, meticulously track the ball's trajectory, speed, and spin in real-time

Middle Size Robots
The Middle Size RoboCup at FunPark brings a larger scale and added complexity to the robotic football experience. This segment features robots that are larger than those in the Small Size RoboCup, typically around 50 to 80 centimeters in height, which allows for more advanced onboard technology and more robust interaction with their environment
Small Size Robots
Small Size RoboCup, often referred to as the SS RoboCup, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of miniature robotic football. This segment of RoboCup is specifically tailored to showcase the capabilities of compact robotic players on a smaller pitch
