WIRELESS COMMUNICATION INFORMATION

There will be only one 802.11b channel for our league to use. It will be assigned to us at the venue. Be prepared to switch to and use that channel exclusively for all on-site radio transmissions.

There will be several 802.11a channels for our league to use. They will be assigned to us at the venue. Be prepared to switch to and use these channels exclusively for all on-site radio transmissions.

Any teams transmitting within the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency ranges must comply with the assigned league channels. Any interference, even inadvertent interference, with the assigned league channels during scheduled practice or mission times is grounds for disqualification. Compliance with other local laws regarding radio communication power levels and transmission frequencies is also required.

LATEST NEWS

** RoboCup2005 Committee NEWS No. 6 (2005.2.21) **

TEAMS SHOULD SEEK THEIR OWN LOCAL SPONSORS
RoboCup 2005 will encourage teams to find sponsors for their team.
RoboCup had a really strict rule on team sponsor logo because of a previous contract with an advertising agency. After the expiration of the contract last year, the logo rule will be changed. In summary, the following rule will be applied for RoboCup 2005. Official explanation in exact words will be announced later since the following sentences are not legally correct.

1) Team shirts may have sponsor logo of any size with the condition that it does not affect the game and the league.
2) Robots may have sponsor logo with the condition that it does not affect the game and the league.
3) Team poster can include small sponsor logo, but it must not advertise any products and services of the sponsors.
4) Distribution of commercial brochures, advertisement of sponsor products and services, and any commercial activities are prohibited.
5) The logo must not include any statement concerning politics nor religion. Is must not be related to ethical problems such as crime, mental abuse, etc.
6) The logo must not be related to any commercial activities.
7) Teams are responsible for any trouble caused by the team sponsorship.

This change would make it easier for teams to have their own sponsors. Please see the main RoboCup2005 website for further details.
