The world's first AI-driven soccer match Humanoid Robot It was recently held in China. The match featured a humanoid robot wearing black and purple jerseys, and competed in a 3-on-3 match, playing in two 10 minutes, the report claims. In this match, the robot's movements were guided by built-in algorithms. Instead of testing fast-paced actions, the event was said to be intended to demonstrate balance, agility, and AI-based decision-making. According to the report, the robot raised its fist after scoring. The games, which are reportedly joined by Chinese technology agencies, highlighted the development of Machine autonomy. It is said that this kind of match will be the first in China, and may be a preview of the future Humanoid Robot Games of the WorldIt will be held in Beijing. A report from China's News Network (see by Bloomberg) found that teams from Tinh University and Beijing University of Information Science and Technology took part. A Tsinghua team named Vulcan has won the championship, the report added. A video of the same thing was also shared by Beijing Evening News.
What the organizers of the AI Robot Football Match said
The organizers of the AI Robot Match said in a statement to the News Agency AP that a key aspect of the match was that all participating robots operated completely autonomously using AI-driven strategies without human intervention or supervision.The robot equipped with advanced visual sensors was able to detect the ball and move around the field with reasonable agility. They were built to stand up on their own after falling, but had to be carried out from the stretcher field by staff during the match, adding a realistic element to the event, organizers noted.The robots were provided by a company named Booster Robotics, the publication adds. The company's CEO, Cheng Hao, said the sporting competition will provide a practical environment for testing humanoid robots and support the progress of both the algorithm and integrated hardware software system.
