Name
Seizure
After choosing our team name, Eagle Imperium, a student mentioned a very famous Roman figure, Julius Ceaser. Sticking with the roman theme, the team twisted “Ceaser” into Seizure, an allusion to the idea that the robot was to shake during a match.
Throughout the competition, other teams nicknamed our robot “Net-bot” on account of its net.
