Abstract:	In this paper, we describe Cornell BigRed, the team of Robot Soccer competition that we developed to attend the RoboCup competition. The project entails the construction of fully autonomous, fast moving robots which will work together as a team in an effort to compete against similar teams of robots in a robotic soccer match. We designed and built the robots and the image processing algorithm, and developed the game strategy for the many situations and the artificial intelligence for collaboration between the robots. To provide a realistic testing platform for our artificial intelligence system, we have constructed a simulation of the playing field. The simulator has provided a means of testing the artificial intelligence play-by-play even before our robots were fully constructed.
