Robot football. Two Lego robot footballers with a ball. Demonstration games between teams of these robots were held at RoboCup-98, the 1998 World Robot Soccer Championships. This international event promotes the development of mobile, co- operative robots through competitive football games. The robots seen here were built with new Mindstorms Lego. They can sense their surroundings through light and touch-sensitive Lego bricks and have been taught to play football using a programmable brick which controls moving parts. The robots were developed in the LegoLabs at the University of Aarhus in Denmark. RoboCup-98, the second RoboCup, was held in Paris, France.
