I expect something else dealing with semi-precise balancing, due to the Segway HT launch (possible promotions other than dean wandering around on his Segway).

I'm going to cover all of our bases mechanical wise this year. Anyway I've got this odd notion that our robot will have to climb stairs. It's got to be some obstacle course with something thrown in to collect.  Anway check these websites out. This is the closest looking wheel design to the ibot and is what allows it to climb up stairs.(yeah I know the ibot has four wheels and that has six wheels but this machine doesn't have gyroscopes)
