GERMAN ROBOT NIMBRO roared in medium sized Robocup while the JAPANESE JOITECH robots triumphed in the full size Robocup, a sporting competition for medium and full sized robots
Robocup 2013 took place in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
Robocup, like the football World Cup, challenges countries to dent teams against each other. Two robots, in this case teen sized robots, take on two others while people watch.
The Nimbro Teensize team from Germany had an easy win in the final of the Humanoid Teen Size League against CIT Brains Teen from Japan.
The Japanese team had problems with their robots, while both the German robots were on the field for most of the match - a numerical superiority which they used to full advantage.
The German team scored three goals in the first half and then sealed the cupl with a fourth in the second half.Robots do a little shuffle in the direction of a ball before kicking one leg at it.

The Adult Size final saw JoiTech from Japan take an early lead. But then JoiTech’s robot couldn’t find the ball when it was his turn to take a penalty shot, making the score even again. However the Japanese team went back into the lead when the next shot by the Taiwan team’s robot hit the goalpost.
