In just 6 weeks: that’s how long every team in the World in this year’s FIRST Robotics Competition has to build a robot. Here Robby Davis, a Senior headed to Boise State for a degree in mechanical engineering, tests out student created 14″ Omni Wheels for the 2016 game, STRONGHOLD.

Mentors, such as Riyadth Al-Kazily, guide students throughout the build season, lending their real world experiences to the process. Here 2016 Co-Captain Kolin Hawkins, a Senior at Bainbridge High School who is headed to Boise State for a degree in Mechanical Engineer, works on their test robot for the 2016 build season.
