Robo-One: Silly Humanoid Deathmatches
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Monday, 3 of December , 2007 at 5:26 am
Reuters reports: “Dec. 2 - Robots from around Japan have been competing for the title strongest two-legged robot in the world. Around 25 powerful world-class competitors gathered for the Robo-One ground championships at Tokyo’s convention centre. The spectacle strikes a close resemblance to a real boxing or mixed martial arts match as robots trade jabs, dodge punches and eventually knock out opponents with a crushing blow.”
“Crushing blows” include a totally awesome balloon head missile, and robots that must have been designed to destroy through the medium of overwhelming holiday cheer. Click here to view the championship match over at Suicide Bots.
