On your marks... get set... BUILD!

January 6th marks the first day of build season, the six-week period in which robotics teams around the world build robots that fulfill a specific challenge. Once build season is over, these teams compete to go up the ranks and eventually make it to nationals held in Detroit, Michigan, and Houston, Texas. This year's challenge is to create a robot that can drive, obtain 11x13 inch power cubes, carry and set them down on the ground as well as on platforms of various heights, and lift itself 12 inches off the ground.
