Peanut Tin of Terror is an autonomous beetleweight (3 lb) combat robot.  He competed in this year's Robogames 2010.

While I have created many robots before, this was my first experiment with a combat robot.  It was really fun. 

Peanut Tin uses two Ping sonar sensors to detect walls and a motion sensor to detect opponents or know when it is being struck.  I have included a test video to show more about how it works.   I took some video of Robogames so I will put them up. 

While I consider Peanut "complete" since it competed, I have plans to make a better version for the next tournament.
