Yes. We have had about 4 prototypes, all along the same lines. No final product has been created, but proof of concept has been shown. We figured that since it is such a huge part of this game, it was necessary to spend a significant amount of time on it.

I agree that the toughest part would be to create the deployment system also. Depending on what teams use to start the minibot, it will be very tough to fabricate something at competition that deploys it, or even modify their current design to allow for the new minibot.
