LEGO Robotics
LEGO Robotics
Students work on building LEGO EV3's. Programming soon to follow.
Vex Robotics
Vex Robotics
Students built and are testing a Vex Clawbot.
Beyond science and engineering principles, a VEX Robotics project encourages creativity, teamwork, leadership and problem solving among groups. It allows educators to easily customize projects to meet the level of students' abilities as they inspire & prepare the STEM problem solvers of tomorrow.
Mechatronics
Mechatronics
Students design and engineer both electrical and mechanical systems in their FTC robot.
Additive Manufacturing
Additive Manufacturing
Students designed and printed a Driver Hub Holder for the FTC.
Subtractive Manufacturing
Subtractive Manufacturing
Students use the CNC to machine parts for the FTC robot and classroom curriculum. But first a fixture needed to be milled.

We've established our First Tech Challenge team. Our registered team is #15926 Red Dragon Robotics. We would like to enlist Additional Coaches and Mentors – Every FIRST team is required to have two adult mentors/coaches who have passed the FIRST background screening process. www.firstinspires.org/youth-protection
Our first event will be remote this year.
Contact Marcus Clark: mclark@bemusptcsd.org or Mark Dollard mdollard@bemusptcsd.org for more information.
