Introduction
We are a robotics club, a part of Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and a participant in the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics program.
FIRST Robotics was created by Dean Kamen, the inventor of the Segway, to inspire students to pursue careers in science and technology. We compete with thousands of other teams, with the help of professional engineer mentors, after spending six weeks building a robot for a new challenge announced each January.
As a simulation of a corporate engineering environment, buildling a complex yet functioning robot within six weeks requires not only engineering knowledge, but also teamwork and cooperation.
