Robot dogs compete in football league

There is a serious side to the 2005 RoboCup US Open but there is also a lot of fun to be had watching robot dogs playing football.

The event has become the robotic version of the football World Cup and is a fertile meeting ground for robot researchers.

The software that drives the footballing canines has practical real-world applications as well.

Organisers plan the ultimate human versus robot football game in 2050.
