Instructables and RoboGames are pleased as a center punch to announce a new and spiffy Robot Building Contest!

Robots are never going to take over the world if we don’t get off the couch and make them ourselves! Want to win a trip to RoboGames 2009? Tell us how you made your robot.

Good robot design is highly detailed, so we’re asking you to document specific parts of your robot for this contest. Maybe you built the ultimate manipulator arm, designed a killer sensor array, reused some great trash, or just made a gorgeous housing - pick something you’re proud of, and share how you made it.

Show us what you and your robots can do, and win a trip to go to RoboGames, flight and hotel room included! We’re also giving away a Robonova Walking Android kit, and lots of Robot-themed gear.

Submit your entries, children, and you too may have the opportunity to see a bunch of mad people doing what they do best: fiddling with electricity and destroying things to find out more about them!
