Robot kicks-off at RoboCup-98 in Paris, France
Robot football. View of a robot kicking-off to start a game at RoboCup-98, the 1998 World Robot Soccer Championships. This international event aims to create a robotic team within 50 years that can beat the winners of the human World Cup. In the RoboCup, two teams of up to five mobile, co- operative robots play competitive football games against each other. The Pioneer robot seen here was adapted by a team from Tuebingen University in Germany. The robot detects its environment using ultrasound sensors and a specially-designed vision system. It is a Middle-Sized robot (less than 50 cm in diameter). RoboCup-98, the second RoboCup, was held in Paris, France

This print captures the thrilling moment when a robot kicks-off to commence a game at RoboCup-98 in Paris, France. This event, known as the World Robot Soccer Championships, is an international gathering that sets its sights on creating a robotic team capable of defeating the winners of the human World Cup within 50 years. In this particular image, we witness two teams composed of up to five mobile and cooperative robots engaging in competitive football matches. The Pioneer robot showcased here was skillfully adapted by a talented team hailing from Tuebingen University in Germany. Equipped with ultrasound sensors and an ingeniously designed vision system, this Middle-Sized robot (measuring less than 50 cm in diameter) adeptly detects its environment. RoboCup-98 marked the second edition of this groundbreaking event and took place against the backdrop of one of Europe's most enchanting cities - Paris. With its fusion of technology and sport, RoboCup showcases not only advancements in robotics but also highlights how artificial intelligence can revolutionize various fields. As we delve into this mesmerizing snapshot captured by Science Photo Library, we are reminded that innovation knows no bounds. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit to push boundaries and create extraordinary possibilities through scientific exploration.
