DARMSTADT DRIBBLERS WIN ROBOCUP 2010 KIDSIZE

This year’s RoboCup 2010 KidSize championship match was all German, with the FUmanoids from Berlin against the Darmstadt Dribblers. This is no surprise, since it was the exact same final match in 2009. The Dribblers took home the trophy (not sure if there’s actually a trophy), and before you leave unimpressed, remember that this is a fully autonomous match, with the robots relying entirely on their programming and a webcam on their head to find the ball and then decide what to do with it.

More vids, after the jump.

Here’s what the game looks like to the robot… This particular robot is Bruno, from the Darmstadt Dribblers, who made one of the most epic goals of the 2009 competition\.

And here’s the Darmstadt Dribblers versus Team DARwin (from the US) in the semifinals:
