C.H.E.S.T.E.R, standing for Colorado High Efficiency Sample Transport Exploration Rover was built to collect mars rocks and deliver them to a specified target zone. He was built at the University of Colorado at Denver as an extracurricular activity. The robot could not pass the size limitation of 6.5x6.5x14.5 inches but must surmount 4 inch tall obstacles in the course. The build went from sketches, to lexan prototypes, and to a final build using a rapid prototyping machine. The district competition was held by University of Texas at Arlington on 4.17.09 and Chester took 2nd out of 28 teams!! Thanks for viewing and our emails can be found at the end of the video if you have any questions/comments that need to be expressed directly.
Sweet design guys! I'm digging the blue LEDs.

This one was pretty darn good, close second to texas Tech's.... the fact that it was 3D printed was great... could have emailed it to yourself!
