Robotic Futbol Club

We build and maintain a team of over six lunchbox-sized robots to play a soccer-like game against other teams at the international Robocup competition each summer. As a team of mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, we are dedicated to contribute to the field of autonomous robotics and give students at both MIT and Harvard a taste of engineering in the real world.

Recent Activities
The team participated in the RoboCup2017 in Nagoya, Japan. In the past, the team has traveled to Hefei, China in 2015, to Lefkosa, Cyprus for the 2014 Near East University International Robotics Tournament, and to the Netherlands to participate in the summer 2013 Robocup Competition. Unfortunately, our team was not available for the 2016 competition in Leipzig, Germany.

Most Notable Moment
In an effort to pull an all-nighter, the team eventually fell asleep in Maxwell Dworkin Houst at Harvard where their robots play soccer. The team was woken up the next morning by a high school debating team who had been assigned the room for a debate competition.
