METRO ATLANTA ROBOTICS CLUB

SEASON UPDATES

04/28/24 - FINAL UPDATE - MASTERPIECE SEASON WRAP UP

The Metro Atlanta Robotics Club, AKA Team M.A.R.C, had an exhilarating time at the world's festival representing Georgia.

As a rookie team of three, our journey has been quite remarkable. We connected with numerous impressive teams, witnessed terrific projects, and encountered unique robots. We also met another Team, M.A.R.C, from Las Vegas. We also met R2D2, and it chased us around 🙂.

It was a lifetime memory, and the kids had an absolute blast, sparking even more excitement and ideas for the future.
We're looking forward to another season and expanding our small team. Thank you all for your support on our journey.

We came in #40 globally (#15 among US Teams and #1 in the Southeast) in the robot game with a high score of 490. Below is the complete list of teams and winners at #FLL Worlds 2024.

Team MARC Triumphs at GA TECH State Championship, Headed to World Championships in Houston!

Awesomesauce! Team MARC totally nailed it at the GA Tech State Championship. Our cool robot (MARK III 2.24) scored a respectable 425, and came in third place for the robot game. We aced the Robot Design, Core Values, and the Innovation Project. How cool is that? We're just a tiny rookie team of three kids, and guess what? We're heading to the World Championships in Houston in April 2024!

We're bouncing off the walls with excitement and hope to give other teams a boost with our journey this season. Our coaches and all of us can't wait for the mega festival in Houston.

If any of you are going too, let's definitely connect!

Hey, Guess what? We rocked it at the Wheeler Circuit runners FLL 2023 Super Regionals! Our robot, MARC III, snagged the robot design award AND the robot performance award. We scored 425 points in our best run. And our super cool coach, Mr. Sujith Thomas, got the best coach award. Now, we're hoping to make it to the state championships. Fingers crossed! 🏆🤞

During the regionals, our robot had a bit of a problem being super accurate. We figured out that the motors were wearing out unevenly because the robot is getting old. To fix it, our mentor suggested using a gyro sensor for moving around. We changed up our movement blocks to include the gyro sensor's yaw angle reading, and now our robot is more accurate.

We also had some trouble with the rolling camera mission, so we fixed up the program to make it work better. We even added little wheels on the sides of the robot to help it move more steady along the edges.

Oh, and we didn't even try the light show mission during the regionals. But no worries! We made a cool new arm just for that mission. We also changed our robot's routes to save some time. Now, we can quickly bring the robot back to the left home base, swap the arm, and give the light show mission a go! 🤖✨

Yay! Guess what? TEAM MARC totally rocked it at the WHEELER CIRCUITRUNNERS FLL 2023 REGIONALS! We won the super cool ROBOT DESIGN AWARD, and we also got third place in the robot game. 🏆 Now, we're heading to the Super-Regionals – it's like the big leagues for us!

We're sooo excited (and maybe a bit nervous too) for the Wheeler Circuitrunners Super-Regionals on January 21st, 2024. Big shout-out to our awesome coaches, mentors, and sponsor – you all are amazing! And a huge THANKS to Wheeler Circuitrunners for hosting this awesome competition. We couldn't have done it without everyone's support! 🤖🎉
