Tsinghua University wins China's first humanoid robot 3-on-3 football event
Touted as China's first 3-on-3 football game between humanoid robots, the event served as a preview for the upcoming World Humanoid Robot Games, set to take place in the Chinese capital this August.
According to the organizers, a key highlight of the competition was that all participating robots operated fully autonomously using AI-driven strategies – without any human intervention or supervision.
Equipped with advanced visual sensors, the robots were able to identify the ball and navigate the field. They were also designed to stand up on their own after falling.
During the game, however, several still had to be carried off the field on stretchers by staff.
Even AI powered humanoid robots take a dive and play to the ref in this sport.
