Like if there were big, immovable blocks/giant speed bumps on the playing field placed a half a foot away. Similar to the big blocks of concrete that (I think the British) put in fields to stop tanks in WWII. You couldn't drive a robot on wheels through them, so you'd have to make a robot that goes over them. It would be an interesting challenge.
so what your saying essentially is we take the wheels form a iBot and use it to make a robot walk
