Robot and gear puns is the first set in the menu. Build and drive team names is for the builders: a chassis is the load-bearing frame, and a servo is an actuator that allows precise control of position. Code and sensor names is for the programmers, from No Syntax Errors to Lidar Leaders.

Sumo-bot names

In robot-sumo two robots try to push each other out of a circular arena. That is the joke in Push Comes to Shove, Stay in the Ring and Last Bot in the Circle.

How this list was compiled

A list of 130 robot team names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-02 and filed in five groups. Every name carries a word from the workshop, the code or the arena. The robotics terms were looked up on 2026-10-02 in Wikipedia's Robotics article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotics), its Glossary of robotics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_robotics) and the terms' own articles, text under CC BY-SA 4.0. None was taken from a contest, a league, a kit maker, a company, a film or a show, and any match with a real team is a coincidence. Compared by script the same day with every other list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
