ROBOlympics this Weekend

Posted 19 Mar 2004 at 20:43 UTC by steve

Despite a run-in with the US Olympic Committee, the ROBOlympics will take place this weekend as originally planned. According to a recent nature article, the competition has already attracted more than 400 robots from 11 nations. Roland Piquepaille's weblog also has a write up on the event along with a few photos.

I just realized I'm going to be in San Francisco the weekend after this event, if only I'd planned ahead, oh well, maybe next year.

Boingboing has a link to some photos from today's session. Any other sightings out there?
