This work seeks to design and implement a humanoid robotic kick for situations where the
robot is moving for the RoboCup simulation 3D robotic soccer league. It employs …

Robotic soccer simulation is a challenging area, where the development of new techniques
is paramount to remain competitive. Robotic skill evolution has accelerated with recent …

Soccer kicking is a complex whole-body motion that requires intricate coordination of
various motor actions. To accomplish such dynamic motion in a humanoid robot, the robot …

Nowadays, humanoid soccer serves as a benchmark for artificial intelligence and robotic
problems. The factors such as the kicking speed and the number of kicks by robot soccer …

In this paper, we present a walking approach for the Nao robot that improves the agility and
stability of the robot when walking on a flat surface such as the soccer field used in the …

The generation of a robust and fast gait for the humanoid robot Nao is still one of the major
research topics of the Standard Platform League. In this paper, we present a closedloop gait …

In this paper, we present the probably first application of the popular Dynamic Movement
Primitives (DMP) approach to the domain of soccer-playing humanoid robots. DMPs are …

In this paper we introduce an online gras** system for the Nao robot [1] manufactured by
Aldebaran Robotics. The proposed system consists of an object detector and a grasp motion …

This paper presents a detailed description of the optimization process used to increase the
kicking skills of humanoid players. The kicking movement consists of making a step forward …

During heavy work, humans utilize whole body motions in order to generate large forces. In
extreme cases, exaggerated weight shifts are used to impart large impact forces. There have …
