FIRST Robotics - The 2024 Campaign Begins

 

Here we go again.  Another FIRST robotics season.  The "reveal video" describing the game went live on Saturday.  3500 teams around the world are now hard at work.


The team thinks they can do it.  And based on the degree of brainstorming and prototyping that has already happened I agree.  Never bet against smart, motivated kids.

And here's a whole batch of 'em.  Once again we hosted the other teams in the area for Reveal Video, snacks and brainstorming.


After coming up 8 seconds short in a Finals match last season our focus this year is efficiency.  How many minutes, hours or even days does it take to distill down to a precious few seconds when it makes all the difference?  My contribution was to make the long drive over to pick up game specific items over in Minnesota.  Getting them back to home base 45 minutes ahead of schedule - and in compliance with speed limits - will be the first contribution to Project T-minus-08.
