My next door neighbor used to build robots for "Robot Wars." Now he just builds them for local competitions. The first time I went over to his house for a party Orbitron came out and attacked me... luckily he'd removed the kill saws from it. Anyway, speaking of legos, my friends brother built a working harpsicord out of legos. Even the tuning of the strings was done with legos. |

That's like saying the mullet was a fad yet I still see people with mullets. --- Quote ---This one has been done pretty well. Proximity sensors on the front recognize when theres a 'victim' in attack range. Works good as long as you can keep the bot pointed away from the wall. :-\ --- End quote --- Hence why i said manual override. Would nee a way to override form the remote control to disable individual weapons/sensors. The bot I was planning was going to get it's weapon power form air bottles, don't want to waste the air.... |
