Re: How old is your oldest robot

1999 through 2002: completely scrapped, most identifiable components have since walked off.

2002: just an empty hull, no moving parts left. select components hung on wall as "NEVER AGAIN" reminders.

2003: scrapped with great personal prejudice, no identifiable components left.

2004: converted to chairbot, ran away with alumnus.

2005: currently in possession of alumnus-turned-head-mentor, he keeps it in pristine condition for demos.

2006: scrapped, all parts still identifiable in stock.

2007: mechanisms intact, electronics stripped.

2008: converted to chairbot (video here) by yours truly, still in my possession.

2009: mechanisms intact, electronics stripped.

2010: scrapped with great personal prejudice. select components hung on wall as "NEVER AGAIN" reminders.

2011: all systems intact, only missing cRIO. No idea why there's so much of this one left, because there are a few "NEVER AGAIN" opportunities here as well.

2012, 2013, 2014: fully functional, could use a tune-up.

2015: good to go for Kettering Kickoff.
