Metal combat
Robot combat is a sport where competitors battle each other using remote-controlled robots. The robots are typically armed with a weapon of some sort, and the goal is to incapacitate or destroy the other robot.
Robot combat has been around for many years, but it has only recently become a popular spectator sport. There are now several major robot combat tournaments, and the best robots can compete in international competitions.
The robots are typically made from metal, but there are also some robots made from plastic. They range in size from small palm-sized robots to large robots that are over a meter tall.
The weapons used in robot combat vary, but the most common weapons are flamethrowers, chainsaws, and hammers. Some robots are also equipped with armor and shields to protect them from enemy fire.
The robots are controlled using a remote control, and the operator must be able to operate the robot quickly and accurately. The robots can move in any direction, and they can also climb walls and ceilings.
The robots are typically powered by a battery, and the battery can last for up to an hour. The robots can also be powered by a gasoline engine, but this can be dangerous and is not allowed in some competitions.
The first robot combat tournament was held in London in 1996. The competition was sponsored by the TV show BattleBots, and the goal was to find the best robot in the world.
The first international robot combat tournament was held in 2003. The goal of the tournament was to find the best robot in the world, and the tournament was open to all comers.
Since then, robot combat has become a popular spectator sport.
