Combat Robot Team Competes
in International Quarterfinals
A combat robot made from scratch by students in the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science competed last month in the 120-pound class of the 10th annual international RoboGames.
The Blender robot, housed in a 30-inch titanium shell equipped with four hardened steel teeth, spins at more than 120 miles per hour. (Watch the video online.)
The machine lost its quarterfinal match after a motor blew out.
