Abstract
A novel application of a life-like robot is presented in this paper. The "Robotaurus", a vision controlled bull-like robotic creature has been built. It has been tested in an educational contest based on the bullfighting, a typical Spanish spectacle. Several problems of different research fields have been solved for the whole system development. The interaction capabilities obtained through a behavior control architecture have been proved with the "ole!" cheering of the audience.
