| abstract | - IDO (Identified Destroying Object) was a Dutch robot that competed in Series 2 of Dutch Robot Wars. It lost to Hammerhead 2 in its only battle. Team MIETERS was one of the few all-female teams to compete in Robot Wars, with their name being an acronym for "Meesteressen In Ellende, Terrosisatie En Robots Slopen", Dutch for 'Mistresses At Distress Terrorisation And Destructing Robots'. Indeed, the team listed their strength as 'Girl power', and painted a 'no men allowed' symbol on IDO's top panel. Team MIETERS started a rebuild of IDO, intending to enter Robot Wars: The Seventh Wars, but the project was not completed, and the team disbanded shortly afterwards. Carlijn Meyboom, nowadays Caroline van der Meer, later entered Series 9 with TMHWK.
