Okay, if a person is involved in Robotics, should they be called a Roboteer or Roboto? People on my team have spent about a month arguing this so far so I figured posting it here would settle the issue.
Feel free to suggest any other terms?

Uh…hello. Doesn’t the song go “Domo arrigato, Mr Roboto”?
Personally, I think “Roboteer” just sounds stupid.
Then again, that’s just my opinion.
What was wrong with “roboticist?”
I just clicked on a random thing, ummmmmm… hmmmmm… now you’ve got me thinking. Roboteer is okay, but roboticist sounds way cooler.
None of the above.
I prefer the term “Bot Jock”
It’s roboteer. Roboto just doesn’t seem quite right.
In the profession, it is “roboticist” (and has been for at least 25 years).

i like roboto because my nickname with some of my friends outside of robotics is “Mr. Roboto” :]
Between the two choices I’m going to lean towards Roboteer. It’s closer to what our team is comprised of, volunteers.
I belive the correct term is “NERD”
Heh A member of our team from last year actually suggested that to me, but I didn’t put it on the poll… Oh well.
How about FIRSTer?
Oh definitly. I’m proud to be one too. ^^
