Code Usage
Since 2021 we adopted the base image build process published by team Nao Devils.
We don't anticipate to use any code from other teams in 2024.
Own Contribution
We are reworking our team strategy and are developing an acoustic communication protocol to enable partial real-time collective reasoning. Working off of key perspectives from linguistics and harmony theory such as impoverishment (information encoding) and sequential co-articulation redundancy (message sequencing) we try to layer safe-guarding strategies against intra-protocol interference and general signal disruption. The overall goal is signal integration and dynamic world model building and targeted active and passive updating. We intend to use our acoustic communication protocol at RoboCup 2024.

Team HTWK Robots plans to compete in RoboCup 2024 and RoboCup German Open 2024.

Impact
Team HTWK Robots is involved in several activities with the goal of connecting our university with local school graduates. Schoolchildren are invited to visit and get to know our robots. We support the Roberta initiative [1] for improved MINT education. Exhibition matches are held at events like Lange Nacht der Computerspiele [2] and modell-hobby-spiel [3] to wake interest for RoboCup in young visitors.
Other
In the past, we competed under the name Nao-Team HTWK in RoboCup competitions.
