The prototype is 4" in diameter and consists of a pair of discs with a tube of some sort trapped between them. A pair of micro servos smushes together the two discs to reduce or increase surface contact. The prototype will also have an Arduino pro mini, accelerometer, and NeoPixel ring for awesome lightup effects. It's all powered by a slip ring from the main robot.
