RHS robotics team prepares swerve-drive robot for April regional
Summary
Robotics team described building a swerve-drive robot for an underwater-theme competition and plans to compete in an April regional with hopes of advancing to Houston.
Josiah, a member of RHS’s robotics team, described the team’s current build and competition plans: the team is constructing a robot with an arm and a claw and using a swerve drive system. "Right now, we are building a robot to compete with the game steam, which is like an underwater game theme," Josiah said, adding that the team has focused on defensive play so far.
The robotics segment noted the April regional; Josiah said the team plans to compete at an AV R regional and hopes to "win with our alliance and go to Houston." Candela, an exchange student and team member, said international and out-of-state competition experiences were a highlight: "It was so cool going to a competition with people from different countries... It was really cool."
The bulletin did not provide the exact date, location, or registration status for the April regional, nor did it name the team’s coach, specific funding sources, or the roster of students attending.
