Re: Most visually appealing robot

Call me crazy, but here is a tale about a robot that has not been discussed here in a very long time.

On one of the ancient Photo gallery sites that used to hang around here there was once a picture of a robot from a team in ?Arizona? that lasted only one season. I think it was 2004's game, possibly earlier.

The robot was a tall one, with the manipulator designed out of beautiful anodized aluminum elliptical tubing for arms in the front of the robot and I believe it has some graphic design elements that were way ahead of its time. I haven't seen elliptical tubing used like that since.

The last time I saw a picture of this robot it was 2006, since then to my knowledge the server went off line, and I'm not sure if they way back machine has a copy of it.


If anybody can help me find this robot, or even verify the existance of it many green dots will be had. I don't want to sound like a crazy person.
