Machines are capable of following the ball movements, Chasing the ball, positioning themselves near ball. When opponents arrives the machines pass or shoot (Kick) the ball with their intelligent hardware and software.

The Colombian Team Members are getting their hopes high to grab the 2013's RoboCup Title and A Crystal Globe Trophy.
