FTC 2016

The First Tech Challenge is way more than just building robots. The teams (up to 15 team members, grades 7-12) are challenged to design, build, program, and operate robots to compete in a head-to-head challenge in an alliance format. The challenge for FTC 2016 can be found here.

After securing the first place in India, my team Robotrix was able to secure the 17th place at the world championship held in St. Louis, USA !!
