This is a picture of this year's robot for the First Robotics competition(FRC), but before we get to explaining the robot you should know what FRC is. FRC is a high school level robotics competition. Every year teams from many countries build a robot to complete a specific task. This year's task is moving totes (see the video). We had six weeks to build a fully functional robot to compete with. Our robot has a forklift with 2-position opening arms to allow us to manipulate the totes and container. We will be competing in the finger lakes regional on March 26 through the 28th. As a city team, we would like to get support from the students so any RCSD students please come out and support your fellow students.
Matt,
ReplyDeleteWhere is the competition on the 26? The simulated video looks pretty cool. Launching little (aka the green tubes) was pretty crazy.

Matt this is very well written and sparks my interest. I do agree with Mr. Hilling that you need to give further information in order for people to know where they should go to see the event.
