Ogre - a Lego tank

"Ogre is a “Tank” built around a Zamor launching system nicknamed “Hailstorm”. It uses three XL PF motors, controlled either by a standard PF remote, or by the on-board (black) NXT using the Hitechnic IRLink.

The result is a lot of fun to drive around, and even more fun to watch it autonomously detect, target, and destroy loose LEGO targets."
