Dublin Robotics & CORI will be hosting a FIRST Robotics Challenge 30 team competition at Dublin Coffman High School with FLL and FTC demonstrations onSaturday, June 20, 2015.

Come learn about FIRST Robotics and what it means to be a team. We will try to answer all your questions about coaching a team and have live demonstrations for Jr. FLL, FLL, FTC and FRC.

Do you have time to build a Sumo-bot?  Bring a small remote control robot made from your NXT or EV3 kit. We will have a ring set up to test your remote control skills and you will win bragging rights.

We are looking for teams to scrimmage their FLL and FTC robots. Please email Cindy Bryden to sign up. This is a great chance to share robot design and programming skills with other teams and just have a great time.

Dublin Robotics FLL District Tournament – January 10th

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

We invite you to attend the Dublin Robotics District Tournament January 10th at Dublin Jerome H.S. We will be hosting a 32 team competition from 11:30 am to 4:30 pm. There are over 100 FLL teams in Central Ohio and we hope you can find the time to attend this Saturday to learn more about the students and the robotics program.

FLL introduces students age 9-14 to programming, engineering, and creative problem solving.  Themed competitions require teams to do a research project, presentation, and build and program a LEGO® MINDSTORM® NXT robot to perform a series of tasks. This year, Dublin Robotics Boosters is sponsoring 19 FIRST LEGO LEAGUE teams from 4 middle schools and 10 elementary schools with 180 students participating.

FLL WORLD CLASSSMChallenge

What is the future of learning? 
FIRST LEGO League teams will find the answers.  Teams will teach adults about the ways that kids need and want to learn. Get ready for a whole new class – FLL WORLD CLASS!

The Project

For the Project each team identified a topic that they are passionate about or always wanted to learn; created an innovative solution that improves the learning experience; and shared their solution with others. The board of the Dublin Robotics Boosters would like to invite any member of the Dublin Community to become involved with this program by volunteering at the FLL Dublin Robotics Tournament, encouraging you to coach a team next year or becoming a sponsor for the high school robotics team Bad Robot.

Sincerely,
Cynthia J. Bryden
President, Dublin Robotics Boosters

What is the future of learning? FIRST® LEGO® League teams will find the answers.  In the 2014 FLL WORLD CLASS℠ Challenge, from over 70 countries will redesign how we gather knowledge and skills in the 21st century. Teams will teach adults about the ways that kids need and want to learn.  Get ready for a whole new class – FLL WORLD CLASS℠!

FLL challenges kids to think like scientists and engineers.  During FLL WORLD CLASS℠, teams will build, test, and program an autonomous robot using LEGO MINDSTORMS® to solve a set of missions in the Robot Game.  They will also choose and solve a real-world question in the Project.  Throughout their experience, teams will operate under FLL’s signature set of Core Values.
