In Robot Soccer, US Team RoMeLa Dominates Robocup 2011

Posted by timothy on from the robotic-hooligans-coming-next-year dept.

Narmacil writes "U.S. Team RoMeLa has swept Robocup 2011, winning first place in both the kid size and teen size divisions. (Video) CHARLI, America's first full size autonomous humanoid, managed to also make the high score record for the teen size division. DARWIN, the kid-sized robot, beat the Darmstadt Dribblers, the previous world champs, and continued on to the finals to win out." There must be joy in Blacksburg today.

    All wonderful American names, just like "Barack Obama". God how I love my "melting pot" country.
