A drum machine artbot made with eight relays. Drum beat patterns are composed using a drum sequencer and sends midi on/off commands to the relays. A guitar pickup amplifies the percussive click clack of relays as they are turned on and off. Won the gold medal at Robogames 2010. Website: http://home.comcast.net/~botronics/percussus.html
