Sunday, October 1 2023/Cambridge Science Festival – FTC Robotics Display and Showcase
The Cambridge Science Festival Robot Zoo is returning in 2023 with a date of Sunday, October 1st!
Wolfpack Machina, GNCE, Pioneer, Team Unlimited, and one other MA FIRST Tech Challenge(FTC) team, will be demonstrating their robots using the POWERPLAY game. This has been a really fun event in the past – both to run robots again on the game field and collaborate, and to show the public what FTC is all about. Our group is usually the most visited part of the Robot Zoo with about 10,000 people coming through!
Call to Action – 1 more Team Needed
We are looking for one (1) more team to participate in the event. If you want to participate and get more details about what’s required, please contact: Francis Schaeffer, Wolfpack’s coach, at [email protected].
NOTE: To participate a team needs a working POWERPLAY bot, and needs to be able to be present from 11am to 5pm on Sunday, Oct 1.
