Robot Free-Kick Trajectory Lab — Power, Curve & Trajectory (2D)

2D top-down companion to the 3D Kick Robot Simulator: launches a ball with the same power, elevation, aim and curve controls, driven by real projectile physics — gravity, exponential air drag and a spin-induced sideways curve — with a live readout of speed, height, distance and how far the shot lands from your aim point.

This is the 2D companion to the orbiting 3D Kick Robot Simulator, redrawn as a plan view of the pitch so the shot's line and curve read clearly from above. It runs the same physics as the original: launch speed from the power slider, a ballistic arc from elevation, an initial aim toward the target x-position, gravity and exponential air drag during flight, and a spin-driven sideways curve that builds the longer the ball is airborne — with the same goal-frame, post and crossbar checks deciding GOAL / WIDE / OVER on arrival.

2D top-down companion to the 3D Kick Robot Simulator: the same power/elevation/aim/curve projectile physics — gravity, drag and a spin-driven Magnus curve — launches the ball at goal.
