Four robots sprawl out onto the field during the 2.007 (Design and Manufacturing I) competition. Each contestant was allowed to have two drivers, so many created a secondary “bother bot” which would prevent their opponent from scoring. The winner of the competition, Edward M. Grinnell ’11, used two robots. One robot immediately went to prevent the opponent from scoring, while the other scored a single point and then also crossed the field to defend.
