ABOUT US

Who Are We?

The ViBøts are a team of dedicated 9th and 10th graders with a love for robots. The team formed five years ago, and we have competed in five annual FIRST robotics challenges. In our 2020-2021 season (Ultimate Goal). we won state UIL, Inspire awards and many more. Our team wishes to learn as much as possible about coding and engineering as we explore future career opportunities in STEM, while hopefully inspiring others to do the same.

Through hands-on learning experiences our team learns about engineering, programming, leadership, and more. We hope to help in the formation of future productive members of our society to provide the world with a brighter future.

Build

The Build Team designs and constructs the mechanisms on the robots! They get to Everything from the CAD of all our mechanisms to their testing and execution.

Admin

The Admin Team handles all the behind-the-scenes stuff! They run the social media as well as the YouTube channel and organize everything in the Engineering Portfolio.

Another part of the Admin Team's job is to create the presentations for our visits to HILTI and local middle and elementary schools.

ESP

The ESP team does all the coding, as well as piloting and wiring the robot! They also drive the robots during competitions! This includes Autonomous, where the robot is moved without player input.

Our ESP team is the main software team that takes our machine, and optimizes it for the field.

Our Mission

The ViBøts are a contingent of students who strive toward the learning of science, engineering, teamwork, communication, and use of practical skills while maintaining a solid control over the construction of robotic designs.
