9th Int値 Robocup Competition wraps up in Iran
Iran痴 9th International Robocup Open Competition has wrapped up in the Iranian capital city, Tehran, with participants praising the world-class quality of the events, Press TV reports.
More than 2,000 students from 22 countries took part in the two-day competitions, which kicked off in Tehran on Wednesday.
徹ver the past ten years, we have made a lot of progress and it makes me filled with pride to know that the medals we have won in international competitions has led us to this point where we are holding Robocup competitions in Iran, said Secretary of the 9th RoboCup Open Competition Morteza Mousakhani during the closing ceremony of the event.
Professors of Robotics from the world痴 renowned universities, including University of Amsterdam and Stanford University, who participated at the event told Press TV that the competition was held up to international standards.

The competition was held in different sections, including humanoids, deminers, flying robots and rescuers.

By far, the most popular competition has been soccer, which was set up with the aim of creating a team of humanoid robots by 2050.

The robot soccer players must act autonomously and cannot get help from their handlers. Instead, they communicate via wi-fi to co-ordinate teamwork.

Robotics researchers believe that, within 40 years, a robotic soccer team will take to the field that will be able to defeat humans.

The Iranian RoboCup National Committee was officially formed in July 2006 with the main objective of promoting robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) research.

The committee annually supports the organization of RoboCup Iran Open Competition and symposium, where Iranian and foreign researchers meet to exchange their recent research achievements.
