World RoboCup Events...
The World RoboCup events were started up in 1997, with the aim "By the year 2050, develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can play and win against the human world champion soccer team." - To go to the World RoboCup web site, click here. To see a fun soccer match between humans and robots (World RoboCup, Graz Austria, 2009) click here.
Other competitions have since been added. Of particular interest to schools are the RoboCup Junior events - for more information about these at an international level, click here or here.
