'09 was probably the safest and most fun robot to demo. During a Memorial Day parade, we attached a small flatbed trailer to an suv. In the trunk of the suv sat our driver, and I sat next to the robot, refilling it. We'd shoot the moon rocks into the crowd, and all the kids would chase them and throw them back to us.
