Iran Open 2008 RoboCup Competitions

RoboCup
RoboCup is an international joint project to promote AI, robotics, and related field. It is an attempt to foster AI and intelligent robotics research by providing a standard problem where wide range of technologies can be integrated and examined. RoboCup chose to use soccer game as a central topic of research, aiming at innovations to be applied for socially significant problems and industries. The ultimate goal of the RoboCup project is by 2050, develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can win against the human world champion team in soccer. In order for a robot team to actually perform a soccer game, various technologies must be incorporated including: design principles of autonomous agents, multi-agent collaboration, strategy acquisition, real-time reasoning, robotics, and sensor-fusion. RoboCup is a task for a team of multiple fast-moving robots under a dynamic environment. RoboCup also offers a software platform for research on the software aspects of RoboCup. One of the major applications of RoboCup technologies is a search and rescue in large scale disaster. RoboCup initiated RoboCupRescue project to specifically promote research in socially significant issues.

Iranians talks alot , all your arms used against you and you did not even succeed in a revolution , just learn from great nations like Tunisia how to be free men then tell me about your stupid primitive robocops.I am sure the day your system fails you will kiss the ass of the americans that you are pretendeing to fight .Stop talk and work then when you succeed open your mouth . Typical middle easterns alot of words but no action

[chawquee]

cOME TO tUNISIA AND SEE SMART PEOPLE MY FRIEND , you think all arab countries like your arab neighbors which ofcourse being destroyed mentally by nations like you and turks , so come to north africa and we will show men what does , we are those who shaked europe and build andalucia the greatest muslim civlisation plus you iranian never fought a non muslim directly always leaning on arabs so shut up and go eat some stinky rice

@mahdionnet Why do you feel sorry for him or her? OhMaDayzz is telling how it is. If Iran allowed a more open society without so much restrictions in our daily life, we wouldn't have this huge problem with "brain drain" and growing discontent. For a highly capable country with smart people, it's a shame that we have so many skilled engineers and scientists working abroad. Imagine if for example NASA scientist Dr. Firouz Naderi started working for ISA instead. That's only one example, btw.

oh you're right yankee22167 there is just one way to be in freedom "bow in front of the Zionists" you say why? becauase usa is in freedom and liberty in this way. look at your governers. all of them do it .last example for it is the nearly happened revoloution in egypt . all your governers were confused . in 1 way all the world expect them to support people of egypt and in the other way zionism expect them to keep "Mobarak" who made darkness time for egyptians.OhMaDayzz I'm really sorry for you

[yankee22167]

@OhMaDayzz You cant have freedom and islam...they dont go together.....Islam is your problem.....its the problem in Tunisia, Eygpt, and Iran...and for that matter in every muslim country...you people dont get it...you can have Islam and freedom.........islam is faulty.....

[OhMaDayzz]

@yankee22167 Iranians do believe in freedom and democracy, in fact we were the first democracy in Asia (look up the Persian Constitutional Revolution), but unfortunately the fanatics took charge. Every country has its dark times where the fanatics somehow get power like in Germany, Russia, Korea, China - and Iran is no different, but just like all those other countries, Iran will eventually overcome these problems and get freedom.

knock me I am from asian # lushfmlk.info #

[yankee22167]

I find it ironic that a country with such smart people can allow the murder of political opposition, gays, and anyone else that seeking liberty.....You are all missing the passage to progress, and it is free though, free expression, and liberty. They are fighting a hopeless battle.....its the the US's military or techology that make us better than you....Its our founding...the believe that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that make us great...find freedom, and you will find success

Iran is rank top 3 in the world in robot fotboll
