Robotics competition season is back and I spent the weekend at Manor Senior High School photographing the FIRST in Texas district competition being held there. Our team (not shown in this image) had a mixed weekend – it was our first competition and the robot wasn’t quite fully debugged – but ended up with the Industrial Design award and a place in the finals. This photo shows Manor-based team 2789 “Texplosion” on the field during the high speed game which involves gathering as many yellow balls as possible and shooting them into the top of a structure called the Hub.
