FIRST stands For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology. Two teams from Green Bay attended a Robotics boot camp yesterday and today their robots will be in competition with more than 30 robots from other schools. They were given some instruction and ideas by a team of students from California….. and then asked to build their robots.
Both teams had their robots up and running within and hour and by the end of the day were training how to beat other teams in todays competition. We have future robotics engineers at Green Bay…..next step designing a robot to explore Mars perhaps?
The highlight of the workshop was definitely building the kit-set robot and the games. Congratulations to Mason, Chris and team for winning!! The powerpoint lectures were a bit tedious at times though, and Mr. West took us on a tiki-tour of the North Shore while trying to find the motorway with the orange fuel light on!! Overall though, an exciting introduction to robots!
