FTC Robotics - Morse League

Morse League Match #1 @ Chouteau: The Pryor Tigers FTC Robotics Team placed 2nd on Saturday, November 18 at the Morse League Match #1 in Chouteau. This was the first FTC Event of the year for the Pryor Tigers FTC team. The Pryor Tigers went 3-2 in their matches and the scoring and statistics from this event can be found HERE.

Morse League Match #2 @ Pryor: The Pryor Tigers FTC Robotics Team placed 2nd on Saturday, December 9 at the Morse League Match #2 in Pryor. This event was hosted by the MidAmerica Industrial Park and held the MidAmerica Expo Center. The Pryor Tigers went 5-1 in their matches and the scoring and statistics can be found HERE.

Morse League Match #3 @ Vinita: The Pryor Tigers FTC Robotics Team placed 2nd on Saturday, January 13 at the Morse League Match #3 in Vinita. The Tigers did a complete revamp of their robot making it leaner and more maneuverable. They improved upon the autonomous portion and focused on moving pixels rather than picking and placing them. The Pryor Tigers went 4-1 in their matches and scoring and statistics can be found HERE.

FTC Northeast Regional @ MidAmerica Expo : January 27.

Pryor Public Schools

High Growth and Emerging Technology Grant

Pryor Public Schools was awarded the Oklahoma Career Tech High Growth and Emerging Technologies Grant this past Fall. We were able to use these funds to purchase a Fanuc ER-4iA Robot to be intorduced in our Robotics I course and used primarily in our Robotics II course. Our students will have the opportunity to sit for a Fanuc Materials Handling Certification.

As our Applied Engineering program continues to grow we feel the need to incorporate mechanical robots into our curriculum. We currently offer First Tech Challenge Robotics, First Robotics Challenge, and a Robotics class that pairs with our Applied Engineering Level 2 course. This will benefit our students by providing them a program that aligns with local industry that prepares our students for industry 4.0 with a greater emphasis on mechatronics in manufacturing.

McRobo - Mayes County Robotics

PROGRAM

The Mayes County Robotics Team, “McRobo” is a part of the world wide FIRST Robotics Program (firstinspires.org). Each January the teams are given a game to play, and the team has to build a robot to play that game. The team will attend a 3-day Tournament in March, and have the opportunity to advance to the World Torunament in Houston, TX.

OUR TEAM

Our team consists of Mayes County High Schools. You do not have to know anything about Robotics to join. Students will meet at the MidAmerica Center of Excellence, one night per week prior to Christmas (usually right after school from 4-6pm). Aftetr the season begins the team decides on the need to meet, Saturdays are usually a meeting requirement. The McRobo Program is fully funded by companies in the MidAmerica Industrial Park, there is no cost to the students and no fundraising.

TASKS MAY INCLUDE

Programming
Welding
Wiring
CAD
3D Printing
Design
Cutting of Materials
Using hand tools
Leadership
Possible Web design
Photography
Prototyping

SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNTIES ARE AVAILABLE!

About the Robotics Program at Pryor High School

January Robotics Challenge

Build a Siege Engine that will meet the following criteria

Hold 5 ping pong balls
Fire the ping pong balls one at a time
No human contact after ping pong balls have been loaded

Robotics Courses Available

Students will learn to design, build, program and control robotic devices. A rigorous study and application of electrical concepts will include: sources of energy, electrical safety, use and identification of basic electronic components, sensors and actuators. Engineering concepts will include: mechanical design, prototype development, design testing, programming, and proper engineer documentation.

This is an advanced robotics engineering and automation course that delivers thorough and engaging STEM education. This course should deliver comprehensive, standards-based instruction through relevant activities and engagement. This introduces the design method in C++ programming software and robotics hardware building. It ultimately teaches science, technology, engineering and math in a robotics-based, exciting, refreshing and engaging environment for students.
