BattleBots

Mechanical mayhem ensues in this series of battles between remote-controlled robots. The homemade warriors compete in one-on-one events with other machines in their weight class. The skirmishes take place in the ‘Battle Box,’ a 48′ by 48′ arena surrounded by shatterproof glass and set with booby traps that spring up from the floor. Each encounter lasts for three minutes—unless there’s a knockout., Mechanical mayhem ensues in this series of battles between remote-controlled robots.
