How we rate our robots
Each robot is scored from 0 to 100 on five traits, based on its real specs. When in doubt we score low, never flattering.
Strength — Lifting capacity, payload and raw power — how heavy a load it can handle.
Dexterity — Fine motor skills: hands, manipulation precision and speed of movement.
Autonomy — How long and how independently it runs — battery life and self-direction.
Empathy — Social & emotional skills: voice, expressions and interaction with people.
IQ — On-board intelligence: perception, reasoning and ability to learn.
If it were human
“Like a tireless youth academy prodigy — small in stature, big in ambition, always first on the training pitch.”
The Booster T1 is a small humanoid robot developed by Booster Robotics in China, purpose-built for the world of autonomous robot football. It has become a familiar face on the RoboCup circuit, where teams of robots compete without human remote control, relying entirely on onboard perception and decision-making to play the beautiful game.
What the T1 genuinely excels at is bipedal locomotion and real-time situational awareness on the pitch. It uses onboard vision to detect the ball, track teammates and opponents, and decide when to dribble, pass, or shoot — all autonomously. Its compact humanoid form is tailored to the specific rules and field dimensions of RoboCup’s humanoid leagues, making it a highly specialised competitor rather than a general-purpose platform.
Beyond the stadium, the T1 has become something of a viral sensation in China, with footage of its matches and training sessions drawing wide attention on social media. It serves as a vivid, approachable demonstration of where autonomous humanoid robotics stands today — nimble enough to chase a ball, smart enough to make split-second decisions, and charismatic enough to win a crowd.
At the adoption agency, the Booster T1 is the team player who always gives 100%. It won’t help you carry groceries or write your emails, but if you want a front-row seat to the future of autonomous sport and a robot that genuinely loves a good game, this is your recruit.
Welcome to the family! Here is your collectible card.
