The Northern Bites always go out in style. So for the last game the team put on their best look. Intimidated by the Bites’ new look, the Nao Devils didn’t stand a chance. Until they won. But we’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.
For the Northern Bites, Octavian out.

Just a heads up that if you’re in the area, and you’d like to watch our team scrimmage, we are holding a public scrimmage this Sunday in Maine Lounge in Moulton Union. We will be playing the Aibos on the larger field, 5 on 5, and also have a small demonstration of our new Humanoid robots.
Public scrimmages are a great way for us to get off of our scaled down field in the lab, and onto the regulation sized pitch. Also it will allow us to setup our Nao field for the first time.

Not sure how long the link will hold, but here it goes from the Wall Street Journal: In This Soccer Match, Players Are Robotic But That’s the Goal
It’s a pretty cool article about UPenn and UT Austin Villa and RoboCup’s forever entanglement with real soccer.
But awesome: this just in from the official 4 Legged League mailing list:
There has been some discussion about organising a demonstration robocup game in Bremen – 11×11 Aibos on a mid-sized field. The thought is to try and make it a pick-up match (using the same ideas that UNSW and Newcastle used in the legged open challenge last year – a standardized broadcast packet for comms). This would require access to a mid-sized field.
How many legged teams might be interested in participating?
We’ve got 11 aibos…Chown-dog ?
