From B-Smart
![]() ![]() B-Smart (Bremen Small Multi Agent Robot Team) is an educational project at the Computer Science Department of the University of Bremen. In this project a group of students works on a robot team which can compete in the RoboCup F-180 (Small Size) league. The team took part in RoboCup 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and the GermanOpen 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008. The project members are now working towards improvement of the existing hard- and software to successfully compete in the next RoboCup. News2009-07-07: Skuba World Champion - B-Smart earns respect

2009-02-10: German open without Small Size LeagueUnfortunately the German open will be held without a competition in the small Size League. This sad decision was made as there had not been enough regristrations for the competition. Anyway, we are looking forward to the RoboCup 2009 in Graz and have just submitted our qualification materials for this event. Please have a look at our qualification video (~22MB) and our team description paper. 2009-01-02: Happy new year 2009![]() Team B-Smart wishes you all the best for the new year 2009. The countdown for the German Open in April has begun, and we are optimistic about our chances to win it again. Unfortunately we have to announce that our valued Partner Schuricht left us since our contact has retired by the end of the last year. We bewail this step and hope to find a new sponsor for our electronics as fast as possible. If you are interested in supporting the winner of the German Open 2008 please contact us via E-Mail.

At least we can take comfort in being defeated by the later world champion. Plasma-Z caught us in the quarter finals with an unambigious final score of 10:0 - congratulations to thailand. By now we wait for our teammates to return. Some of them spend the vacation they definitely earned in China, others return within the next few days.

Finally it is over - The last matches have been played and the winners were honored. Unfortunately we have missed the first place in the final match against the vice world champion 5DPO from Portugal. Nevertheless, it was an exciting match that had everything a final needs, except a goal for B-Smart. Due to the final score of 0:1 and the one goal being discussed intensively because it was given in the last second of the first half, the audience was quite amazed being shown the qualities and attractiveness of small size robot football. |
