Video Thursday: 11 On 11 Autonomous Sumo Deathmatch

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Thursday, 19 of February , 2009 at 6:00 am

If 37 AIBOs are just too many robots for you, you may be reading the wrong blog. No, wait, come back, I was just kidding. We’ll tone it down a little bit, though, with a mere 11 autonomous sumo bots all going at each other in the same ring:

If I counted correctly, the eventual winner (a tracked LEGO NXT bot) managed to single handedly (or single plowedly) KO six other robots, or over half the entirety of the competition. Not bad, not bad at all.
