about FIRst Tech Challenge
Every year, the FIRST Tech Challenge is a robotics competition where teams build a robot in order to accomplish missions in a challenge issued that year.
The robots have to do some challenges in an "autonomous" mode, using preprogrammed behavior, and do others in a "teleop" mode, where team drivers remotely drive their robots using video game controllers. The robots are rebuilt every season so they can meet the requirements for the new challenge.
Teams compete against one another not only in the robot game, but for award categories as well. There are not only technical awards, but also awards for outreach, and connecting with the STEM community at large. This is a great opportunity to learn about leadership and working together as a team.
