Abstract :
This paper describes the work undertaken, in a two-weeks time, to put a robotic football player doing autonomous driving in a robotics contest. The robot was designed to play football in the RoboCup middle size league, and was used without modifications. During competition, it has to complete two laps of a circuit, autonomously, as fast as possible, and without incurring into infractions. The sensory system was mainly based upon two Webcams, one allowing for omnidirectional vision and the other directed to the robot front
