** RoboCup2005 Committee NEWS No. 4 (2005.2.10) **
1. HUNT YOUR TEAM SPONSORS
RoboCup 2005 will encourage teams to find sponsors by their own effort!!
RoboCup had really strict rule on team sponsor logo because of a
contract with DK, an advertising agency. After the expiration of the
contract with them 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.
2. TEAM QUALIFICATION BY FEB. 28, VISA PROBLEM AND TRAVEL SUPPORT (REMINDER)
The team qualification due is Feb. 28.
Delay of schedule will cause serious visa problem of teams from
countries and regions from which members need visa for entry to Japan.
It takes up to 3 months to get visa.
When you notify the qualification results to the teams, please be sure
to tell them the following points.
1) It takes 3 months to get visa. Early action is necessary. Delay
of action might cause a serious problem.
2) As soon as team members are fixed, request a letter of invitation
to Osaka City as written on the web page. (The web page will be
ready soon.)
In order to decide the travel support, the travel support form is very
important. Please submit them with the list of qualified teams
including a proposal of priority to matsubar@fun.ac.jp and
tadokoro@rescuesystem.org .
