I Want: Ogre, a LEGO tank

Douglas Charles Managing Editor

If you have kids then you know they have some LEGOs, so how cool would it be to help them build something, a house, a fort, whatever, then out of nowhere spring this bad boy on them and blow the hell out of whatever they built?

Ogre is a “Tank” built around a Zamor launching system nicknamed “Hailstorm”. It uses three XL PF motors, controlled either by a standard PF remote, or by the on-board (black) NXT using the Hitechnic IRLink. It also has a small wireless “spycam” attached, so that the driver can “see” what the robot sees. The result is a lot of fun to drive around, and even more fun to watch it autonomously detect, target, and destroy loose LEGO targets.

Awesome…
