FRC Team 2485 - the W.A.R Lords

The W.A.R. Lords are from Francis Parker School in San Diego, California. As part of our FIRST® involvement, we are dedicated to spreading our message about STEM and robotics on a national and international scale. We will bring our 125 lb robot to the event and show the design, coding, driving and competition process to hope to encourage others to get involved with FIRST robotics.

San Diego State University

Student clubs and outreach organizations from San Diego State University will provide engaging and interactive demonstrations and activities for students and families of all ages. From rocket launches and racecars to marine animals and sound waves, audiences will learn directly from SDSU students in science and engineering about their favorite subjects.

Mechanical Advantage, Team 16884

Mechanical Advantage is a FIRST Tech. Challenge robotics team comprised of high school students. The team provides hands-on robotics demonstrations to attendees at community events. The team's robots are no more than 18" cubed and can operated from a table top and on the ground (i.e., driven) depending on available space. The team has operated from both a 10' x 10' and 10' x 20' booth at past Expo Events. The team's past participation has been sponsored by companies like Cox Communications.

FTC Team High Voltage #18263

Our goal is to inspire the youth to learn about STEM and robotics. Robotics is a fun way to explore building and programming, leading to solving world problems. Our team is conducting many interactive robot sessions throughout the year at different locations. We want to advertise our robot sessions and invite a lot of kids to our sessions. We also want to encourage kids to participate in FTC (First Tech Challenge) robotics competitions.
