Snapshots from FIRA Euro Cup held in Ostrava, Czech Republic, 6. - 7. June 2001
Our team helping to set up the playground, lighting and camera stands
Tomas calibrating the camera. Spectrum of fluorescent tubes was slightly different in comparison with halogen lamps in our laboratory
David measuring the friction forces between wheels and playground
From the robot's weight and respective friction forces the maximum acceleration can be calculated, to avoid the wheel slippage during motion
Mirek flashing the new firmware with recalculated acceleration values into the robots
The last goalkeeper's training (goalie's nickname is Hasek :-))
Prayer for the victory...
Siesta. We are waiting for the opponent. Tomas exploiting the spare time for the tuning of image processing algorithms. Behind is the German team from TU Dortmund
