Have you named your robot?

[IMDWalrus]

Our robot is Tarkus, named after the world's niftiest steel armadillo...

[Alex Minot]

scorpion----because we are the pioneers and they probably encountered scorpions

[sojouner06]

some of you may already know this but...THE PREDATOR

[Squeje250]

As Modish said our robots name is ODOR. for Over Dose On Robotics.

[Pattie]

Our robot is named "I, Roybot" - inspired partly due to the book, the song (oh yeah!), the movie, and our High School name and town which is called Roy. Can't really say the vacuum cleaner had much to do with it though. Our team name is Roybotics - so it all just kinda fit together.

The Legacy of Vertigo continues, so 1495's robot's name is Vertigo II or V2 for short.

909s robot is "Nikko" this year...supposedly the leader of the winged monkeys from the Wizard of Oz. We were OzBot last year.

[Iain McLeod]

Our project code name is Mantis II... I don't know what we're actually going to name it....

The last name I can remember is "Lou's girlfriend" (long story) from about three years ago.

every year except for 2001, our robot has had a different name, in 2002 it was black beauty (it was covered in black lexan), 2003 it was jawz, 2004 we named it rio and this year we have not figured out a name for the bot

[vic burg]

We've been arguing it out for 4 weeks... Currently we're split into 2 camps:

The main camp is currently gunning for "Alter Ericius ut est Furtim" which translates from Latin to English as the "Second Hedgehog Which is Stealthy", a tip of the hat to Stealth Hedgehog, which was our robot a couple of years ago.

The other camp wants a reference to united in the name, which is currently being bashed down due to it being led by Manchester United and Cambridge United fans.

[psych0gambit]

eh, do we even have a name??? not sure...

[Yan Wang]

Last year, it was The Red Tulip.

This year, it's The Red Mantis.

We now seem to be going for "Eric", short for "Ericius", which translates from Latin as "Hedgehog". No one has objected to it... yet.
