Site for FUJISOFT Incorporated’s All Japan Robot Sumo Tournament.
About
FUJISOFT Incorporated’s "sumo" refers to the company’s long-running All Japan Robot Sumo Tournament site rather than a single robot model. It served as an information and registration hub for robot sumo competition, where small autonomous robots are built to push an opponent out of the ring. The site reflects FUJISOFT’s role in supporting hobbyist and educational robotics in Japan.
Because "sumo" is associated with the tournament platform and event coverage rather than a specific robot product, there is no clear launch or discontinuation year for a robot model itself. The record is best understood as part of the tournament’s public-facing presence and not as a standalone robot release.
