A four legged league game from RoboCup 2004 in Lisbon, Portugal.

RoboCup is an international robotics competition founded in 1993. The aim is to develop autonomous soccer robots with the intention of promoting research and education in the field of artificial intelligence. The name RoboCup is a contraction of the competition's full name, "Robot Soccer World Cup", But there are many other stages of the competition such as "Search and Rescue" and "Robot Dancing".

The official goal of the project:

By mid-21st century, a team of fully autonomous humanoid robot soccer players shall win the soccer game, complying with the official rule of the FIFA, against the winner of the most recent World Cup.[1]

The contest currently has four major competitions, each with a number of leagues:

In this league all teams compete with identical robots. The robots operate fully autonomously, i.e. there is no external control, neither by humans nor by computers.

RoboCup 2008 included the Four-Legged Standard Platform League with the Sony AIBO robots, and the Two-Legged Standard Platform League with the Aldebaran Robotics humanoid NAO robots.[2]

The RoboCup@Home competition debuted in 2006, and focuses on the introduction of autonomous robots to human society.

Each team is fully autonomous in all RoboCup leagues. Once the game starts, the only input from any human is from the referee.[3]
