You mean like this? Okay, so this one has a yellow glow instead of blue, but close enough.



This particular version of the Tumbleweed rover is wind-driven. But there is another variation built by a former FIRST student that now works at Johnson Space Center in Houston that is made entirely of FIRST-legal parts, and is actuively driven/controlled.
