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

I was in the middle of writing "The Chair Challenge" here on the site, and then we got server-problems with this site.

Result was that an unfinished competition went un air, unintended! And before I knew it, it was won by JIP with this robot. But then i realized that hes robot did not in fact circle all the legs of the chair, and he was disqualified!

Therefore "The Chair Challenge" is now "The Chair Challenge! (Part II)" - we try again, and this time the rules are a little different :)
