2022 – TDP – ER-Force – RoboCupSoccer – Small Size

This paper presents proceedings of ER-Force, the RoboCup Small Size League team from Erlangen located at Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. In the last years, we continued working on our new generation of robots, a process that started in 2019 [1]. In section 2, we present our new chip kick plate. Section 3 describes the redesign of our electronics circuitry. The focus lies on new board connectors, on-board documentation, our kicking circuit and a new way to cut off the battery power from our robot. In section 4, we describe changes made to our attack patterns to better handle the larger playing field. We also give an introduction into the workings of our simulator, which was used in the RoboCup of 2021, in section 5.
