in the Brazilian Robot Football World Cup, In addition, the runner-up team is also from China and the Shanhai Team of China Agricultural University, which uses the accelerated evolution T1 robot. The Chinese team won a comprehensive victory in this World Cup adult group event and won the championship and runner-up! This is the victory of the Chinese team and the victory of the Chinese robots!

Since the World Cup group stage officially started, the Chinese team has performed well and sang all the way, sweeping over traditional global teams with an overwhelming advantage. Among them, Tsinghua Vulcan team "shortly blocked" their opponents UTAustin Villa team and Tsinghua University TH-MOS team successfully reached the adult group robot final with a big score of 16:0, 9:0 and 12:0. Finally, in the final, Tsinghua Vulcan team defeated Nongdashanhai team 5:2 and won China's first "World Cup"!

RoboCup Robo Football World Cup, the first competition began in 1997. It is currently the highest-level, largest and most influential robot event in the world. Among them, the humanoid group event (RoboCuphumanoid) has received the most attention in all competition events. In the 3V3 team competition, robots not only need lightweight, flexible, solid and resistant to falling robots, but also have complex real-time perception and brain decision-making, advanced motion control and multi-agent collaboration tactics, which is a comprehensive competition of robot full-stack technology.

Accelerated evolution T1 and K1 robots not only became the official "user" of top Chinese teams such as Tsinghua Vulcan, Nongda Shanhai, and Tsinghua TH-MOS, but also won the favor of foreign strong teams such as UTAustin Villa in the United States and Boosted HTWK in Germany. The robots used by teams that advanced to the finals in adult groups and small groups all come from accelerated evolution. This means that with its excellent performance and friendly and easy-to-use development tools, the Chinese hardware platform has become the "general equipment" of international top events for the first time and the core force of the global competitive stage.
