TURTLE: Base | Upper Body | Ball Handling and Kicking Mechanism | Goalkeeper | 8-Wheeled Base


Contents




Robot Summary

TURTLEs are the football robots that compete in the RoboCup Middle Size League for Eindhoven University of Technology.

The structure of the software is explained using MATLAB Simulink flow charts, which can be found by clicking on the links below (opening in Internet Explorer requires a seperate plugin):

Overview

TURTLE is an acronym for Tech United Robocup Team: Limited Edition.

The robocup team basically consist of a total of 5 players, including one keeper. Since 2010, the keeper has a different design. However, the TURTLE field players can be used as a keeper with minor attachments. The field players will be discussed in the following sections.
In order to do this, the mechanical design of the TURTLE, visible in Figure 2, is divided into three parts that will be discussed in more detail separately:

1. The base
2. The upper body
3. The ball handling and kicking mechanism
