Sunday I went to barber shop to have haircut. Luckily I came across august 22 issue of Outlook business which featured the Robotic industry in silicon valley here is the link for it. Interesting thing I found there was about Robotic industry in India, and more fascinating was Robo soccer. Let us keep aside whatever robots he has give there and think about building Soccer player on our own. What are the features I would like to include in my Soccer player? Certainly I would like to make it look like Human being in action.
1) it should be able to make quick moves.
2) recognize ball.
3) able to balance on any part of the body.
4) shoot the ball.
5) pass the ball.
6) stop the ball.
7) run with ball.
8) Certainly I don't want it to think much
well those are very complicated If its human shape Lets change the shape and think. Assume its round in shape. Still we can do above things. or
Lets turn on the tv and tune into the sports channel.

Very Interesting.. Let me add my 2cents considering the recent controversies..
1. need diving skills (ability realize that the opposition goalie is approaching and dive to earn a penalty) - read as Eduardo attributes.
2. need to instigate the opposition fans on scoring a goal and stamp on opposition players while tackling - read as Adebayor attributes
Coming back to your thought of the robo being round .. would you still call it football?
hmm.. good points yes it needs to have diving skills n i love that second point stamp on opp. player so round robots overruled
