Testing has been going so well that I wanted to share what's been going on behind the scenes. I wish I could tell you more, but I'd get in trouble.

Wow, this is downright epic. Great work. This could prove useful for the upcoming water challenge. :rolleyes: Thanks for sharing!

To give full credit, this was an entry in the NI Student Design Competition, and they were on stage at NI Week this year. It uses a myRIO (roboRIO's baby brother) and was built by students at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich.

That locomotion is cool! It looks like an agitator that escaped from a washing machine and was set free.

looks like something that someone needs to build for NURC next year
