Robot Wars From The Future

It’s no secret that Japanese people and engineers like robots. We’ve seen them inventing a RoboPhone, getting the robots to fight against each other, let them change the TV channels and even make fool of themselves in a useless robots competition.

So that’s we are not surprised to see a real battle that was held in Japan between two robot teams. Each of the robots was given a laser gun (don’t worry it was a non-lethal laser) and the teams were programmed to exterminate the over team.

The robots were fighting in Blazer tournament which was held in Fukuoka City, Japan. The robots are actually models built by hobbyists, so no actual robots were harmed in the process if you worried to well-being of the SkyNet messengers. The tournament was held on the surface of a model city and a smoke generator was even used, to get that nice futuristic and frightening effect.
