What happens when robot football players retire

2016-07-18
Whitley is now five years old Whitley was nearly all the time the goalie of our team and you have saved many balls for us could be more but could be less also we get quite attached because after some years when you work with the robots you you recognize that every robot has some specialities like there's something broken when the new was one robot and you know he's always falling down and yeah it's like kind of friends for you which it's more like children because we have to take care about them all the time Whitney has some Intel processor in it it was a netbook processor so it's not very fast you have one gigabyte of RAM use use me that camera for seeing the balls and it's 20 motors one of his little motors cost around about 200 euros so what's were robot is quite expensive there are some things in the electronics are weakly what are quite not so good anymore so sometimes you just lose for power connection or the CPU of computers just saying all children the leak is getting bigger and bigger the grass is getting higher so he can't walk this good anymore and yeah I think this is the last year program yeah he's getting really old he's like five years old which is really old for robot it's in human years 60 years or something so I think it will be the last year that he's playing because we cannot buy more spare parts it doesn't make sense anymore weekly will be in our lap I think the half of our robots are going to be there for demonstration so something like school classes can try some things with robots I fear but we have to take apart one or two of our robots to get the parts into really so it especially one or two can live on word it's quite an old player and have much history time you
