Each LSC robot is created during the semester by IM students. They're designed, engineered and personalized by each student or group of students as the semester progresses. The "Battle" is the culmination of their hard work. To succeed in battlebot competition, your robot must be agile, aggressive and tough...and be engineered intelligently enough so the student can make all of this happen via remote control. Keep an eye out for next year's "Battle"...it promises to be even bigger and BADDER!")
