Posted: April 15, 2010 by Daniel Vámosi Martinussen

Today DTU are hosting the finals of their robot competition, where teams compete against each other.

The annual competition are currently taking place at DTU in Lyngby where the finals have been taking place for the past three days and if you are not present to see the impressive robots with your own eyes - the 2009 edition gathered a house full of spectators! - you can watch it live on the internet.

If you follow this link you can stream the finals over the internet and watch the exciting showdown from your computer.

DTU RoboCup is a competition where autonomous robots compete on a track with curves, gates, a guillotine, a ramp, stairs and many other obstacles. You have to overcome as many obstacles as possible, and you may win “point money” or even one of the big money prizes.

The competition was held for the first time in 1997 and was so well received that it is now an annual event. We hope to see participants with different backgrounds – others than engineering students. You may win prizes for other things than driving through the track.
