Bristol Robotics Laboratory led the bid to host the event in the UK |
FIRA Robot World Cup
More than 200 robots are heading to Bristol for the first FIRA Robo World Cup to be held in the UK.
Twenty-seven teams will take part in football, basketball and weightlifting events in the At-Bristol science centre over six days, starting on Monday.
Advanced robots and their creators are travelling from Mexico, Canada, India and China for the competition.
The UK has a team from the Bristol Robotics Laboratory and another from the University of Plymouth taking part.
The city won the chance to host the event due to the work of the Bristol Robotics Laboratory (BRL), a joint research project between the University of Bristol and UWE Bristol.
