RoboCup humanoid league group picture. GMU robots shown in the red box.

This makes GMU quite different from other teams at RoboCup. Fast Company has written an article on the GMU team, complete with pictures. GMU won two games and lost two, and advanced to the final 16 in the Kid-Size Humanoid League.

The resulting trained robots are then entered into the competition.
