This is the Mini sumo Championship in Stockholm Sweden. The robot tournament was held in a museum called Tekniska Museet (The Technical Museum). And there were both prices to win as well as spectators that came just to se these autonomic robots fight. Since the robots are autonomic, no one controls them remotely. Instead they all must be programmed before the battle starts and then leave the robot with its code on the arena to its destiny. The robot that first touches the outside ground looses, and there are many others of rules and requirements to participate. All these robots weights below 500g, have less than 10 x 10 cm base size, no allowed connection to human controlling, not allowed to fly, not allowed to intentionally destroy the opponent, and meany more.

Here are lots of fights from the Championship collapsed into one single 10 minute clip. Enjoy it, and cheer for my robot - Rolling Rhino (The one searching for the line before turning) :D

Enjoy!
