Chapter 54: Robot Soccer Match

An Xin did not break her promise, and the next day, she sent Yang Lin an online banking account and password containing $1.5 million in Deutsche Bank.

In order to avoid the sight of the military intelligence department, Yang Lin spent another 50,000 US dollars to transfer the money to his UBS account registered in his real name through a series of money laundering methods, which became 1.45 million, plus the original 1.85 million US dollars in his account, at this time, his UBS account had a total of 3.3 million US dollars.

In addition to the 200,000 yuan spent on this trip, there are still 2.2 million yuan in the domestic account.

This means that he has more than 23 million yuan at his disposal.

With sufficient financial support, Yang Lin seized the time to study the Android system and began the preparatory work for the new company.

After all, starting a company from scratch is not as simple as people think, whether it is recruiting employees, finding an office location or registering a certain amount of time, he can't wait until the app is successfully developed to prepare the company to run the software, that would be too wasteful of time.

However, just as he was about to register a new company, Yang Lin received a call from his sister, and the Jiangda "Excellence Cup" Robot Football Invitational Tournament began.

Jiangcheng University "Excellence Cup" Robot Football Invitational Tournament has a history of seven or eight years, initially only Jiangcheng University students formed a team to participate, but in recent years, several colleges and universities in the same Jiangcheng Higher Education Park will send their own teams to participate.

Of course, Jiang University's strength is undoubtedly among the best among these schools.

Lin Qingya and her medium-sized anthropomorphic group fully autonomous robot competition, a total of 16 teams, including three teams representing Jiangcheng University, in this competition, only the top three teams have the opportunity to represent Jiangcheng University in the ROBOCUP held in Los Angeles next year.

The competition was held in the Jiangda Gymnasium, and the 16 teams were divided into four groups, and each group held a round-robin match, with the top two points entering the quarterfinals, and then the quarterfinals, semi-finals, and finals respectively to determine the final champion.

The competition lasts about three months, with the group stage and the 9th to 16th place qualifying round in October, the quarter-finals and the 5th to 8th place qualifying round in November, and the semi-finals, finals and 3rd and 4th place qualifying rounds in December.

Basically, the team of Jiangcheng University will win the top few places in the event, and of course, the goal of the Blue Phoenix team is naturally to win the championship.

When Yang Lin arrived at the game site, there was still more than an hour before the Blue Phoenix team came on the field.

Lin Qingya and Yang Ying are doing the final testing and debugging of the robot decision-making software in front of the computer, while Tao Tao, Qin Han, Xu Jiahui, Xu Ze, and Ren Bin are checking the various subsystems of the robot, including power system, drive system, communication system and environmental perception system.

Their instructor also changed to a teacher surnamed Han, a female associate professor in her forties, who had taught Yang Lin before, and Yang Lin was quite familiar with her.

Seeing Yang Lin coming, they all just smiled and said hello to Yang Lin, and then went their separate ways, and even Yang Ying was busy with the tense debugging work before the game.

They participate in a fully autonomous robot competition, which is different from the remote-controlled and semi-autonomous robot competitions.

Needless to say, the semi-autonomous robot refers to the robot with an external global vision system and a radio communication system, and the computer host issues a decision-making command to control the robot to complete the game.

Autonomous robots refer to robots with embedded environmental perception systems and autonomous decision-making software, which can make autonomous decisions to complete the competition.

Lin Qingya's robot is very similar to a human, with complete limbs and facial features, it looks very cute on the outside, the height is about 55cm, and the body is composed of 32 joints, which can carry out various actions independently.

Chen Xin also turned it around with his hands, and the weight of a robot was about more than ten catties.

Its perception system consists of two color cameras, an ultrasonic sensor probe, and an ultrasonic sensor board; The decision-making system consists of a motherboard and a hard disk. The network communication is composed of a bus conversion board and a wireless network card; Finally, the motor control board forms the motion control device of the robot.

The Blue Phoenix team has a total of six of these robots, of which four were in the last game, and the remaining two are used as backups.

After Xu Ze and the others checked the various subsystems of the robot, they handed over the robot to Lin Qingya and Yang Ying, who tested the robot's decision-making system, and then selected four robots to compete.

Yang Lin stood behind Lin Qingya and Yang Ying and watched with great interest, and occasionally asked them about the design principles and ideas of this independent decision-making system, but he also had a certain gain.

An hour passed before I knew it, and soon it was the turn of the Blue Phoenix team.

According to the regulations of the organizing committee of the competition, a game of this level of robot competition is usually divided into two halves of seven minutes each, with a five-minute break in between.

Their opponent in this game is the TBB team of Jiangcheng University of Science and Technology, which is a team that was only formed last year, and there is a significant gap with the Blue Phoenix team.

At the referee's whistle, the Blue Phoenix team's robot kicks off first.

The little robot took the lead and drove the yellow ball directly to the opponent, and the TBB team's robot also began to twist its body awkwardly, looking for the location of the ball.

And the robots of the Blue Phoenix team also began to step forward, scrambling for the yellow ball.

Compared with the human football game, this robot football game looks simply monotonous and boring to the extreme, the robots are clumsy, and there is basically no tactical cooperation between each other, and various accidents also occur frequently, such as falling to the ground, identifying obstacles, and colliding with each other.

However, this outward manifestation does not hide the technical content behind it.

Lin Qingya, Yang Ying and others looked very confident, smiling as they watched their robots fight with their opponents on the court.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Blue Phoenix team's robots to show superior technical ability, especially when it came to identifying football targets, they were often much faster than their opponents, and when the game was only two and a half minutes into the game, they seized a chaotic opportunity in front of the opponent's goal and stabbed the small yellow ball into the opponent's door.

In the following time, the robots of the Blue Phoenix team did not give the opponent any chance, whether it was offensive or defensive, the performance was remarkable.

The score remained until the end of the first half.

At halftime, Lin Qingya and they looked quite relaxed, and even Yang Lin could see the technical gap between the opponent and the Blue Phoenix team.

Five minutes later, the second half began.

The Blue Phoenix showed continued pressing, scoring another goal less than a minute into the second half.

But when the opponent kicked off again, the accident suddenly happened.
