  The NUbots are an interdisciplinary RoboCup team from The University of
Newcastle, Australia. The team has a history of strong contributions in the
areas of machine learning and computer vision. The NUbots have participated in
RoboCup leagues since 2002, placing first several times in the past. In 2014
the NUbots also partnered with the University of Newcastle Mechatronics
Laboratory to participate in the RobotX Marine Robotics Challenge, which
resulted in several new ideas and improvements to the NUbots vision system for
RoboCup. This paper summarizes the history of the NUbots team, describes the
roles and research of the team members, gives an overview of the NUbots'
robots, their software system, and several associated research projects.
