Calling All Engineers - The Mercy Robotics Team Needs YOU!
The new 2015 Mercy Robotics Team has a few weeks to prepare for their FIRST Robotics competition - Recycle Rush.
The goal of First Robotics Competition is to be "The varsity Sport for the MindTM, FRC combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams of 25 students or more are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors. It’s as close to "real-world engineering" as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team."
If you are an engineer, CAD designer, or love robotics and are a Mercy parent or alumna, your assistance would be very valuable. If you are interested, please contact the team leader, Dan Riehl at driehlmi@gmail.com or Colleen Rozman at cmrozman@mhsmi.org.
