This is the second year for my “mobile robotics” demonstration during the Herff College of Engineering Open House (aka E-Day). This year’s display included the Bluff City Bots 2011 USFirst Robot<\/a>, the robots<\/a> used for my University of Memphis – Engineering Technology<\/a> Classes, an internet controlled robot<\/a> built as a senior project by David Kennedy<\/a>, my personal robot<\/a>, a Lego NXT<\/a> robot and a HexBug<\/a> crab. <\/p>\n
