Hundreds of robots are roaming the San Francisco State campus! Little mouse sized bots. Giant combat bots! Nobody is safe! But unlike Barry Bonds, not a single one of them uses steroids. http://www.robogames.net/ The BBC summed it up best at last year's event: The competitions seemed to break down along cultural lines. The Japanese robots reigned supreme when it came to sumo-wrestling, while the European teams showed off their skills on the football pitch. As for the American machines, they specialised in demolishing the living hell out of each other. Ain't America great?! http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3564553.stm
I read about this in the Merc - cool competition. Too bad us American's couldn't smash the heck out of those fake football playing Euro's!
