Back from Kansas City

I just got back from the National Robotics League national event in Kansas City, MO. Plum Robotics took third place at this event with our robot Atomic Shock. Lots of pictures and videos to follow.

Atomic Shock lost it’s first fight against the NWPA champion robot due to a broken weapon belt. In it’s second fight Atomic Shock suffered a good bit of damage after it’s fight against the only college team at this event.

What Robot Won What?

I’m in the process of writing a report about BotsIQ. I am curious to what type of robots have won recent events, what type of weapons they were using and the overall design. I’m looking at the last two years and all of the BotsIQ/NRL/15lbs events around the country. Please add to this list at all possible.
