Sioux and ToyPro launch unique LEGO® Mindstorms soccer robot MOC
25 June 2019
In cooperation with software company Sioux ToyPro presents the unique LEGO® Mindstorms Sioux and Tech United soccer robot. This smart LEGO® soccer robot is based on the TURTLE soccer robot from Tech United, the robot soccer team from Eindhoven University of Technology which has won the RoboCup championships multiple times. This LEGO® soccer soccer MOC can be ordered exclusively at ToyPro as an extension set of the LEGO® Mindstorms EV3 Home Edition set (31313) or as a combiset.
Play a game of soccer alone or against your friends with this unique Sioux and Tech United soccer robot. This Mindstorms extension set has been developed by Jan Willem van Silfhout and Hans Odenthal of high-tech company Sioux. This LEGO® soccer robot can move and turn into every possible direction thanks to its omni-wheels. You operate this ingenious soccer robot by remote control, and with its grippers you grab the red ball (comes along with the order) and shoot it off again.
The Sioux and Tech United Soccer robot consists of parts of the Mindstorms Home Edition set completed with parts of this exclusive extension set. You have the option to further extend the robot yourself with a Pixycam, for example, and of course you can programme the robot following your own wishes completely. Besides, you can adapt and improve this soccer robot after your own ideas – after all, it is a LEGO® robot.
Although this LEGO® soccer robot is based on the Tech United robot, it is not an exact copy in LEGO®. The functionalities of the real world champion are far greater than those of the Sioux and Tech United soccer robot. Nevertheless, you have the possibility to improve, to programme and to extend the Sioux and Tech United Soccer robot.
The Sioux and Tech United soccer robot can be ordered exclusively at ToyPro. Careful, this is not a ‘stand alone set’, but an extension set to the LEGO® Mindstorms EV3 Home Edition set (31313). You haven’t got the Home Editions Mindstorms EV3 set yet? If you order the Mindstorms EV3 set now, together with the Sioux and Tech United football robot, you will benefit from an €25 discount on the total amount.
