Line 1: [[File:RoboCore Robot Sumo.jpg\|thumb\|right\|~~Robot~~A robot-sumo match]]▼ ~~{{no footnotes\|date=October 2011}}~~ '''Robot-sumo''', or ~~pepe~~'''robo-sumo''', is a type of [[~~sport~~robot combat]] in which two [[robot]]s attempt to push each other out of a circle (in a similar fashion to the sport of [[sumo]]). The robots used in this competition are called sumobots.<ref>[https://www.fsi.co.jp/sumo-e/out/outc0000.html What is Robot-sumo ] in FSI All Japan Robot-Sumo Tournament</ref> ▲[[File:RoboCore Robot Sumo.jpg\|thumb\|right\|Robot-sumo]] The [[engineering]] challenges are for the robot to find its opponent (usually accomplished with [[infrared]] or [[ultra-sonic]] [[sensor]]s) and to push it out of the flat [[arena]]. A robot should also avoid leaving the arena, usually by means of a sensor that detects the edge. The most common "weapon" used in a sumobot competition is an angled blade at the front of the robot, usually tilted at about a 45-degree angle towards the back of the robot. This blade has an adjustable height for different tactics. [[File:Minisumo.JPG\|thumb\|A mini-sumo match]] Robot-sumo is divided into classes, fought on progressively smaller arenas:<ref>[http://robogames.net/rules/all-sumo.php Unified Robot Sumo Rules (English)]</ref>: * Heavy-weight. Standard in the [[National Robotics Challenge]]. Robots may weigh up to 125 pounds (56.8 kg) and fit in a 2-foot cube (61 cm). * Light-weight. Also standard in the [[National Robotics Challenge]]. Robots may weigh up to 50 pounds (22.7 kg) and fit in a 2-foot cube (61 cm). Line 14: * Micro-sumo. Up to 100 g mass, must fit in a 5 cm cube. * Nano-sumo. Must fit in a 2.5 cm cube. * Femto-sumo. Must fit inside a 1 cm cube. ~~There is also Lego Mindstorms NXT sumo robots, in which NXT robots compete. The robots usually have to fit in a one-foot cube.~~ ==References==▼ ~~Classes are further divided into remote-controlled and autonomous robots.
