Abstract
The article describes the structure of the GMD robots developed for the RoboCup ’98. The hardware of these robots consists of an aluminum chassis with differential drives. They have low level sensors (odometry, distance sensors etc.) and a NewtonLab vision system. The software is organized in a layered structure using a uniform design pattern on each layer. A synchronous communication paradigm is adopted for the information exchange between the different layers.
