Robotics Football

Robotic Football. Robotic football refers to a competition based on American football between teams of distinct robot units. The game is played on a field the size of a basketball court and the robots are roughly the size of printers. They maneuver on wheels and perform all the primary football functions: throwing, kicking, catching, running, and tackling. Although the robot units have some autonomous functions on board, they require human operators for full functionality and maneuverability. The game’s rules are based on 8-versus-8 football rules used for small high schools.

The games from 2008 through 2011 were scrimmages between two teams designed, built, and operated by over 60 Notre Dame mechanical engineering seniors, and have been reported nationally: by Wired Magazine, USA Today , and NFL.com , in addition to some local news and South Bend coverage, Notre Dame News , The Observer , and Ohio Northern
