The Past

I have been asked to give a talk at The Edge in two weeks under there new Dorkbot group. I was thinking about doing a presentation on the history of combat robots in Australia. I am not sure how long its meant to go for but would be good to start with anyway so I looking for information on the everything that has happened.

Some notable things which come to mind.

Uk Robot Wars Forum
ARWO
Formation of ABBL
Metal Mayhem 1 - 4
Robowars
Robots on Neighbours
Silicon Chip article.
Formation of NSWRFC
Formation of QRSC
Battleshed
Ideas festival

To be honest I have been round for quite a while but my memory of many of these things is quite bad. So please help me out with what you remember and any photos or videos you have.

I will try to keep them in chronological order below.
