Dear Simulated Nao/MSRS RoboCup contestant,
This package will enable you to begin development of your Simulated Nao Soccer player for this year's MSRS Simulated Soccer RoboCup competition, the finals of which will be held in Suzhou, China.
We expect to make a final release of this package in May.
Enjoy!
the Aldebaran team

The simulated Nao services allow you to control a simulated Aldebaran Nao robot in the Microsoft Robotics Studio simulation environment, edit poses and moves, and includes source code of an example of a basic Nao soccer player.
This is a Community Technical Preview (CTP) for feedback purposes, so please drop by our forums and inundate us with bug reports and feature requests. With your help we can continue improving your experience.
The API presented by the Simulated Nao is not yet harmonized with the much richer API of the real Nao - there are no high-level walk controls, Cartesian space moves or Centre of Mass controls. However, by carefully combining and sequencing animations, relatively advanced behaviors can be made.
Although some features are available without coding, to make the most of this package you should be familiar with at least one .Net language and have followed the MSRS tutorials available online.
