// This Communications Component is implemented using separate Read and Write
// threads. Messages from the threads are posted to the Comm control which is
// an invisible window. To handle data from the comm port, simply
// attach a handler to OnReceiveData . There is no need to free the memory
// buffer passed to this handler. If TAPI is used to open the comm port, some
// changes to this component are needed ( StartComm currently opens the comm
// port). The OnRequestHangup event is included to assist this.

The Little Green BATS is the first and so far only Dutch team in the 3D simulation league. We are a group of graduate students from the department of AI at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands. Our team name is derived from the fact that the first 3D agents in the league were balls and from the very philosophical observation that Balls Are Truly Spheres (BATS). This abbreviation reminded us of our favorite song Little Green Bag by The George Baker Selection and so the whole team name was born.
We entered the competition for the first time at the 10th edition of RoboCup at Bremen, Germany. unfortunately our hard work didn t pay off that time: already in the second round we got eliminated. However, after this we had a good base to build upon and the good time we had at the event and the nice community inspired us to continue and work hard for another year. This turned out to be defiantly worth it, because in 2007 in Atlanta we managed to become vice world champions!
