Abstract
The ground robots community has setup a competition called the RoboCup [10] (Autonomous Robotics World Cup) to challenge the progress of the technology achieved by both the academy and the industry around a use case that consists in playing football. In this paper we describe a similar approach that we are setting up for autonomous aerial vehicles (drones). The use case is Volleyball.
