Re: Robot Names

Our students have always come up with a fire-related name for our robots.

2007 Inferno
2008 Fireball (named after Fireball Roberts, a NASCAR star)
2009 Afterburner
2010 Pele (named after the Hawaiian goddess of volcanos, and the great Brazilian soccer player)

Re: Robot Names

2007 Thor
2008 Brynhilde
2009 Loki
2010 Tyr

and speaking of Chuck Norris, we have named our promotional T-shirt launching bot:

Chuck Norse

Re: Robot Names

MOE 365 has a process similar to the X-Cats for naming our bot each year. A list of names is developed and the team votes. Names all have "MOE" as part of the name.

2010 MOEmentum
2009 CozMOE
2008 DynaMOE
2007 MOEzilla
2006 TerMOEnator
2005 MOEbius
2004 GizMOE
2003 GeroniMOE
2002 MOEhawk
2001 L'il MOE
2000 Big MOE

Re: Robot Names

We have two this year the competition bot is Heather named after a school counsler who dies last year frim brain cancer. Her son is on our team. Our practice robot is Oscar who was one of the La Vida Robot 4 who beat MIT in the underwater robot comp. He has now been deported and has a wife and kid here in the US that are citizens. He has a degree in Mechanical Engineering and is now looking for a job in Mexico, Spain, or Canada. one of them is going to get a hell of an engineer that was trained in the US. Too bad for the US. We named the bot after him to honor his struggle.

Funny, our robot was almost OTIS this year, although all caps. Funny, then someone on the team (a mentor) who hadn't seen the robot in weeks (yeah, I know, not sure how it happened, she's more business type, I guess) emailed saying the name was Striker.

Re: Robot Names

Since our rookie year, our team has included "feet" in the name. This largely stems from the fact that we used mecanum wheels our first year, and named it "happy feet." For whatever reason we continued this our second year.

2007- Happy Feet (Mecanums, plus the movie of course)
2008- Sweet Feet (No clue.)
2009- Slippery Feet (Slick wheels, duh!)
2010- Big Foot (I know, not plural. Named for the kicker though!)
