Most of us make robots, and most of us make robots that can somehow manage to move around on a flat surface.

But.. Can you make a robot that can

Drive, crawl, walk, or jump around.. perhaps even avoid obstacles etc..

AND

Lay upside down

AND

If it is lays upside down, sideways, or in any position on a flat surface, will manage to turn itself around to "upright" and start moving again

letsmakerobots.com will mail 1 set of cool belt tracks with geared motors (chose gear ratio and color yourself) to the first robot builder who is building and submitting a robot that can do that.
