FIRST Robotics

I am a volunteer mentor for FIRST Robotics Competition. Most recently, I have mentored and coached teams 1510 (Wildcats) and 2898 (Flying Hedgehogs) in Beaverton, OR. Our team 1510 won the 2011 Cascade regional competition in Seattle and the 2011 Portland competition Chairman's award, so we were invited to the World Championship in St. Louis, where we came out around the middle of the field against the best teams in the world. Both teams made the elimination rounds at the 2012 Oregon regional and at the 2012 Seattle regionals. Though I have relocated to Massachusetts, I will be joining team 2898 one last time at the St. Louis championship, then starting to get involved with teams in the Boston area.

My robotics tutorial wiki pages

There was a lot of good media coverage of FIRST Robotics last year from very visible outlets like CNN and ABC. Another major shot in the arm for visibility of FIRST is the collaboration of Will.i.am, who has done a great deal over the past year to promote the program and competitions.
