FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC) is an international high school robotics program. Each year, teams of earnest students, diligent coaches, and prestigious mentors work during a six-week period, building robots capable of competing in that year's game that weigh up to 115 pounds.
During the 2024-2025 FIRST® season game REEFSCAPESM presented by Haas, teams must assemble a robot that will perform efficiently while also carrying out the game mandates. In conjunction with an AM14U6 drive train and one additional motor controller, these items can create a robot that can play some aspects of REEFSCAPE. It was intended for teams to build the original robot, but also freely choose to further construct additional properties. The Gigawatts first assemble the drive train and formulate a CAD outline. After accumulating the correct materials, our mechanical team began building the robot from the ground up! Utilizing the belts given to us, the intake of the robot was constructed.
