Crimson Bot Brawl VI 

ABOUT CRIMSON ROBOTICS

 WHO ARE WE? 

Crimson Robotics is Washington State University’s combat robotics club. The Crimson Robotics team designs, manufactures, and competes with robots ranging in scale from 3-pound “Beetleweight” robots, up to our flagship 250-pound robot, “Painsaw.” Twice a year, the club hosts and livestreams a combat robotics tournament called the Crimson Bot Brawl that is held on the Washington State University campus. The competition features competitors from Crimson Robotics, as well as fighters from all over the Pacific-Northwest. 

OUR MISSION 

Crimson Robotics’ mission is to create open access combat robotics, as the field that can be intimidating and expensive to enter into otherwise. Our club provides the education and resources necessary to create and compete with combat robots to all Washington State University students at absolutely no cost, regardless of experience or choice of major. 

IMPACT 

Members of Crimson Robotics learn practical engineering skills such as CAD, technical drawings, designing for manufacturing, and much more. In addition, they gain valuable communication and leadership skills through working in interdisciplinary teams for all club projects. Members can work at their own pace and prioritize which skills they would like to focus on building. The skills that Crimson Robotics members learn while creating robots directly leads to success in finding internships and industry jobs.
