Of course, robotics is only gaining relevance in today’s world with automation, contactless cleaning, co-bots, AI, autonomous machines, etc. It’s really an engineer’s dream to build a BattleBot – energy, momentum, electro-mechanics, mechatronics, controllers, you name it. ‘I Had to Be a Part of It’Ī lot of us have followed BattleBots and BattleBot designs through the years, and we’ve participated, mentored, and advised on various other robotics competitions. The scale and energy of a battle, especially when two of the heavyweight robots are engaging each other, is both fascinating and a touch frightening, so it’s reassuring to see the contest area and spectator gallery separated by what looks to be NASCAR-like protection.Įarlier in 2021 when I learned through a friend and ex-PTC colleague that Chuck Pitzer and his Ghost Raptor team were looking for sponsorship and technical partnership, I knew right away that this was something for Onshape. Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics could easily serve as safety instructions for building a BattleBot.
