[RC-HL] EXTENDED DEADLINE : Call for Workshop proposals
by Alessandra Rossi 08 Apr '22

08 Apr '22

Dear Robocuppers, We decided to extend the submission deadline for the workshop proposals for the RoboCup Humanoid League Virtual Season. RC-HL virtual season organisers will hold a three days event on April 28-30, 2022 focused on exploring the sim2real transfer topic. It will be a great opportunity for both exploring future collaborations between different leagues, and sharing knowledge and experiences on techniques and approaches in simulated environments. Each workshop will be of half hour, and we welcome proposals for discussion groups, tutorials or interactive activities. More info on how to submit your proposal are here -> https://humanoid.robocup.org/hl-vs2022/rc-hl-virtual-season-workshops/call-… Moreover, we want to invite you at the Semi-Final and Final that will be streamed on April 17th from the joint event German Open Replacement Event (GORE) organised by SPL and Humanoid League which takes place in Hamburg (Germany) from 12.04. to 17.04.22. Looking forward to receive your valuable inputs and contributions. Feel free to contact me for further information.

rcssserver 17.0.0 released
by 秋山英久 02 Apr '22

02 Apr '22

Dear 2D community, rcssserver 17.0.0 is available. https://github.com/rcsoccersim/rcssserver/releases/tag/rcssserver-17.0.0 This major update contains the following features with some new parameters. Details are described in the release notes and the NEWS file. - The direction of the goalie's catch command has been restricted. - Players can no longer use negative power to accelerate backward. - JSON-based monitor protocol/game log format is available. rcssmonitor-17.0.0 is also available. https://github.com/rcsoccersim/rcssmonitor/releases/tag/rcssmonitor-17.0.0 This version supports a JSON-based protocol but needs to be improved regarding the performance of JSON parsing. The v17 simulator will be used in this year's official competitions. If you find any defects, please report them via GitHub issue: https://github.com/rcsoccersim/rcssserver/issues https://github.com/rcsoccersim/rcssmonitor/issues If you have any questions or comments about the simulator, please consider joining the discord server of the 2D community: https://discord.gg/yFxkCcatGe Best regards, Hidehisa Akiyama

* Final Call for Satellite Events * RoboCup International Symposium 2022 https://2022.robocup.org/symposium-call-for-satellite-events/ Submission of proposals: 3 April 2022 Notification to authors: 25 April 2022 Satellite Events: 17 or 18 July 2022 (RoboCup 2022: 11-17 July 2022) =========================================================== We invite you to organize a satellite event for the 25th RoboCup International Symposium, which will be held on 17 July 2022, in conjunction with RoboCup 2022 (11 July to 17 July 2022) in a hybrid setting. The RoboCup symposium is an annual event in which innovative, original research with relevance to areas of robotics and artificial intelligence is presented. The Symposium Program Co-Chairs would like to facilitate the organization of satellite workshops, focus groups, roundtable discussions, and other events that are related to RoboCup itself or the general aim of the RoboCup Symposium. This includes league-specific discussions about rules and/or roadmaps, shared infrastructure projects between leagues, as well as scientific workshops focusing on a particular research topic, among others. League committee members, as well as teams or individuals from RoboCup leagues participating in the Symposium, are invited to submit their proposals. The organizers of a satellite event are free to propose events between 2 and 8 hours in length to be held during or a day after the RoboCup Symposium (17 or 18 July) in a fully virtual, hybrid, or fully local format. IMPORTANT DATES =============== Submission of satellite events: 3 April 2022 Notification to authors: 25 April 2022 Satellite Events: 17 or 18 July 2022 (RoboCup 2022: 11-17 July 2022) SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS ========================== Proposals will be evaluated by the Symposium Program Co-Chairs based on their thematic relevance to the RoboCup Symposium as well as their proposed schedule and required resources. Satellite events will not be included in the RoboCup Symposium proceedings. Proposals should be formatted following the LNAI author guidelines [0] and must be electronically submitted through the EasyChair electronic submission system [1]. Please follow the LaTeX template created by us by either downloading the template file [2] or by creating a private copy of this Overleaf template [3]. Submissions are limited to a 4-page extended abstract, excluding references. Each submission must include the following sections: * Name of the satellite event * A description of the format (e.g., discussion group, workshop, tutorial, invited talks, ...) and intended length of the event * Prefered date and time of the event (17 or 18; morning or afternoon, or the whole day [no lunch will be provided unless it’s on the 17th]) * A description of the content and aim of the satellite event * Names and contacts of all members of the organizing committee/group with one clearly marked person as the corresponding member of the organizing committee * The intended audience and the number of participants expected * Any resources required to organize the workshop After the acceptance of their proposal, organizers are expected to create a short description of their event as well as a website providing further information which will both be linked from the RoboCup symposium page on the RoboCup 2022 website. Organizers of accepted proposals for satellite events will receive a location for their event as well as other required resources (e.g., a projector), if possible. Apart from this, the organizers are responsible for organizing their event independent of the RoboCup Symposium.
