RoboCup is an international robotics competition founded in 1997 with the goal of advancing research in artificial intelligence and robotics through soccer-playing robot teams. Organized by the RoboCup Federation, the event challenges robots to collaborate, strategize, and compete autonomously, simulating real-world decision-making and coordination. Its long-term vision is to develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots capable of defeating the human World Cup champions by mid-century. RoboCup has become a major platform for innovation in machine learning, robotics control, and multi-agent systems.
