Stealth Hedgehog was the robot designed by 759 for 2003's Stack Attack task and was one of the few robots actually designed to stack the boxes. It did this by picking up one box then putting it on top of another and repeating. In trials, a stack of 11 has been made (we ran out of space in the hall) and more could be added given enough boxes and space.
An easy to drive robot, the robot soon lost components to it's successor robots and as such currently does not work. It is hoped to restore Stealth Hedgehog to it's former glory at some point however.
The frame of Stealth Hedgehog is steel, painted black with white text around the top. The text is an attempt to describe the rules of cricket although in an awkward fashion...
The rules of Cricket: You have two sides: one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out and when he is out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are 2 men called Umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all men have been out and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that's the end of the game.
