What IS this thing? I even looked at the website it was on, and it told me nothing. Trying to figure out what it does from what we do know...
Six-wheels, maybe used for difficult terrain?
Padding on the sides... either it's expected to ram into things due to moving at high speeds, or it will be automated, perhaps with sensors behind the padding, so that it turns away from objects it collides with?
Can't see any obvious camera or microphones, might not be a data-gathering machine, but perhaps there is, and the front is the side we can't see at this angle.
A little light poking up there, so maybe for observed automation, it moves on it's own but has a signal light so it could be found more easily.
If I could look at it from above, it might tell me if this thing is for digging up stuff, samples of something, but I can't tell.
For now... I'm going to guess... mobile wifi hotspot.

Looks like a competition robot to me. Something like VEX or FIRST, where high school students build robots under specific restrictions (height, weight, etc.) to complete a specific task/game.

revere google image searches yep, it's from a local FIRST Robotics Competition.

For the longest time (as in, over two years, after we tried to resize images in the New Hyperion dispatch) I've thought it was impossible to do that on this forum, and told people who've asked me the same.
