    Team AO (CAN) Sumo Robot

    Well, I've decided I'd like to enter the 'world' of mini robot sumoing. There are tournaments in toronto which I'm willing to go so AO CAN is covered (any canucks wishing / willing to lend a hand would be apreciated). Anyone have any ideas? by the way, an unnoficial (but official..) summary of sumoing can be found here: http://www.robotroom.com/SumoRules.html
    I've got a basic idea worked out, anyone wishing to contribute, go ahead!

    I'll have drawings up of the basic design soon, since I'm on a fixed budget the frame will be composed of reinforced lego technic. The main 'programming' will be simple navigation IE optical sensors, 3 infa red on the bottom to keep the bot inside the ring. Max of 1.1 pounds in mini class, 6.6 in japanese class.

    Old Narhwals are people too ...
    Grizzly Bears are people too ...
    Caterpillars are people too ...
    Baby Peacocks are people too ...
