Robotics in Edutainment: Robot Soccer

In this survey, we describe different possibilities of combining education and entertainment (so called edutainment) in field of robotics. Robot soccer has proven itself as an ideal platform for this purpose, as it requires knowledge in number of disciplines, such as electronics, computer vision, computer science or artificial intelligence, and also contains elements of amusement and competition. In this way, involved students have wide spectrum of options they can choose based on their knowledge and interests. Two examples of successful use of robot soccer in student education in Croatian and Slovenian universities are given: first example is construction of soccer robot, where students develop their skills in mechanical engineering, as well as in electric and electronic engineering, and the other example is organization of student robot soccer simulation competition, where students develop their own strategies and compete against each other using robot soccer simulator, this way fostering their knowledge in computer science. These two examples have shown that robot soccer gives students opportunity to solve the real-life practical problems resulting with a new quality in education.
