  This robot was built for my google science fair entry.  The goal behind this project was to see if an inexpensive robot could trigger anti personnel mines.  For my experiment I made scale mines and checked to see if my robot could trigger them using a flailing chain on the front.  The experiment went well and I am happy with how this robot preformed.  There is a lot more information on the submission site along with a video.
