Today the team had a fantastic opportunity to visit the JBT Automatic Guided Vehicles corporation for the second time. Not only did they take the time describe real world robotics engineering they became an official sponsor! Your generous donation of $3000 will be used to advance the team’s autonomous visioning lidar capabilities.

As an added bonus, we were excited to hear presentations from the Upper Perk Robotics - VEX IQ Team, their 4th and 5th grade students presented their robot designs and were quite impressive.

Thank you Giorgio Grimaldi, Senior VP, GM AGV, Mike Camut and our own Vijay Chhabria with JBT corporation for sponsoring the visit!

Quick update from Seneca! We finished 9th out of 33 teams during regular play, moving up to Alliance 6 Captain, and selected Team 6921 Technados and Team 2016 Mighty Monkey Wrenches as our playoff partners—huge thanks to both! We were honored and surprised to win the Imagery Award for our robot’s appearance (i think 100+ CNC’d parts helped!), our team’s theme, and our commitment to FIRST values.

And of course, a big thank you to Seneca HS, for hosting an amazing event! 🚀🤖

I’ve been delinquent in posting this season but I’m super excited about how well our autonomous driving from anywhere on the field and positioning for scoring coral is working. #7414
