d.tech Robotics Team BREAD #5940
Welcome! Design Tech High School’s (d.tech) Robotics Team is a student led organization that has joined the FIRST Ⓡ Robotics Competition. FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics is an organization devoted to inspiring youth in the fields of science, mathematics, and engineering. For more information about FIRST, explore their website: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc
WHO ARE WE?
Our team name is BREAD which stands for Breakthrough Robotics Engineering And Design. Our team includes students and parent mentors supporting us with a website, art design, photography, food, and more. Our group consists of approximately 30 students (sophomores and freshmen) who joined to gain first hand knowledge in driving a project from start to finish. We will gain hands-on experience about building, coding, and designing. In the process, we will develop and master collaboration, self-discipline, leadership, business, public speaking, and communication skills. We're fortunate to have volunteer technical mentors: mechanical engineers, software engineers, and architects. The opportunity to partner with these professionals benefits us immeasurably. We strive to be a solid contestant in competition, be considered for the rookie award, and aspire to attend the World Championships.
COMPETITION SEASON
BREAD will be competing as rookie team in the FIRST Robotics organization on April 6-9, 2016. Starting January 9 to February 19, our team will be constructing our robot. This is a critical period where we learn and develop many new engineering and design skills. In preparation for the build season and the competition, we are seeking financial support now to raise a minimum of $30,000. The funds will go toward purchasing materials for the robot, tools & equipments, team shirts, travel expenses, and registration fees. Your financial donation through this website is considered TAX DEDUCTIBLE. Please donate now to help us reach our goals.
Thank you for investing in our future.
