Welcome to calliope. We design robots for
research, education, and entertainment.

This is the Green Smog. It’s the last robot we designed for the FIRST Robotics Competition. It has a robust scissor lift and a powerful drive system. It is currently residing at Hendrix College.
This is Wolfgang. It is our best robot. We’re working on it in the pits in preparation to attending the 2005 FIRST Robotics Competition. Wolfgang currently resides at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, where he crushes popsicle stick bridges in the Introduction to Mechanical Engineering course.
