Who are we?
NIST Robotics Team is a group of secondary school students who are interested in robotics, want to learn to program and/or build robots, and enjoy working as a team to make it all happen.
What do we do?
We meet every week on Mondays at 3:30-5:00pm to design, build and program VEX EDR robots which can perform in two-minute long competition matches.
There will be matches at school, skirmishes against other Thailand schools, and the Thailand national competition in February.
The winners of the Thailand national competition earn the chance to travel to the VEX Robotics World Championships (a tournament with approximately 15,000 competitors).
Want to Learn?
Check out links above to Programming, Building, and Strategy.
How can you get involved?
You can talk to Mr. Jason Edwards or Mr. Doug Blackman or Mrs. Leah Davis Edwards.
You can fill out this form to express your interest.
We will then interview interested students to determine level of commitment.
