We competed in both sizes of the humanoid leagues at RoboCup-2009, in Graz, Austria. While we did not make the finals in either league, we did get three games and into the second round in small-size soccer, and our large-size robot Archie walked publicly for the first time. Archie also attended a press conference in Vienna, and it was picked up in a short story with photographs by the Associated Press that appeared around the world. The Winnipeg Free Press version is below. There is an associated gallery and Video section for the tournament.

We will be be attending RoboCup 2018 in Montreal, the first time RoboCup has come to Canada!

The Autonomous Agents Laboratory is one of the research laboratories within the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manitoba, and is directed by Dr. John Anderson and Dr. Jacky Baltes. The goal of our work is the improvement of technology surrounding hardware and software agents as well as the development of applications employing these technologies. We are especially interested in cooperation in multi-agent settings, and the infrastructure necessary to support this and other forms of social interaction in intelligent systems.
