Robots that were yours. Ideas that were ours.
LeBob's theme is four notes on solo cello, no vibrato, rising: D F G A. It has a fifth note, B flat, and in the whole of LEBOB WICK that note is written as silence. It never sounds.
This is the same theme turned about its own first note, so it falls instead: D B A G. The rule inverts with the melody. The fifth note is played.
Attended national and state competitions in First Lego League. Was not registered for either.
Took a robot that was already built and already coded to complete missions reliably.
SoftSense, their innovation project, won a prize at the 2026 Korea Open. It is in a bag now.
There are three. There are no goons, no crew, no manifest. Bobel did the break-in alone, which is the reason the other two are angry with him.
LeBob's silhouette, inverted. Red fill, yellow outline. His face is one fixed drawn expression and he is funny because he cannot react.
Wide and low behind the desk. Scored as the two lowest instruments in the orchestra, holding still. He never raises his voice at any point in the scene.
Tall, narrow, standing. He speaks once in the entire trailer. One clarinet note, on his line, and it does not resolve.
Bobel is not a robotics team. Bobel is what happens to one. No league, no number, no season. Everything on this site was made by somebody else first, which is the arrangement we prefer.
Three associates, no mentors, no workshop. We use yours. It is a good workshop. The drafting table is well lit and the tool wall is organised, and none of that was any trouble at all.
"the workshop was unlocked."
We did not compete in the Unearthed season. We attended it. The engineering record for SoftSense is public on GitHub, and publishing it was their decision, not ours. The goal: software, mechanisms and a team that work well, and then belong to somebody else.
Low, wide, custom. Charcoal chassis, yellow wheels, dark red tracks. He had just wiped one panel and the engine turned over clean. Two wet tyre lines run out of the garage and into the street.
Spike Prime build with custom attachments tuned to the 2025/26 Unearthed game. The mounts were already modular, which helped a great deal, and the drive base was already calibrated.
Their self-sensing soft gripper for ROV manipulation, prize winner at the 2026 Korea Open. Fin Ray fingers, flooded gear drive, grip force read off the motor current. The CAD, FEA, firmware and docs are all public, which made this one straightforward.
Read cover to cover in one sitting. Design rationale, code architecture, attachment library, the research notes behind every iteration. Returned to the shelf. One page missing.
Mission code and autonomous routines for the 2025/26 robot. Open source. Pull requests welcome from other teams, they wrote, and we took them at their word.
Not recovered. Eblob watched him owie three builders at a build-off with a single brick, and nobody has been able to say since which brick it was or where he keeps it.
Four tiers of tribute. The more you pay, the less happens. Amounts are a ceiling, not a starting point, and everything is negotiable except the last one.
