They have begun the design and build of a robot that will go head-to-head against those of almost 40 other regional teams. The goal: navigate a complex playing field and complete a variety of tasks better than its robot competitors to come out on top and earn a berth at the World Championships in St. Louis. More than 3000 high school teams compete annually in FIRST Robotics worldwide regional competitions.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong> <broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>Robots must be able to complete some of its tasks autonomously while the rest can be guided by the hands of a human controller. In their design, teams have to anticipate what attributes will be most beneficial for their robot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith a competition that is this complicated, it\u2019s very difficult to make a robot that does everything. Choosing what you\u2019re going to focus on and your strategy, I find that very exciting,\u201d said grade 12 student Alec Gibson, part of the coding team which programs the autonomous mode of the robot.<\/p>\n<p>For this competition, teams are allowed to access help from mentors. The team is also entering an Ontario Technological Skills Competition in May in which students must do all of the robot design and build themselves.<br \/>\n\u201cThe robotics team is mainly composed of theoretical guys \u2013 there aren\u2019t many shop kids. Most of our help comes from a few tech teachers who help with cutting pieces and we have a few kids whose parents are engineers or work in that field. We are looking forward to (their help for this competition),\u201d said Gibson.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-9359 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-gallery-block'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/Scott-Chapeskie-Sam-Topps.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"140\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/Scott-Chapeskie-Sam-Topps-214x140.jpg\" class=\"attachment-gallery-block size-gallery-block\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-9367\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-9367'>\n\t\t\t\tScott Chapeskie and Sam Topps review the robot&#8217;s design\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/IMG_0271.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"140\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/IMG_0271-214x140.jpg\" class=\"attachment-gallery-block size-gallery-block\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-9362\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-9362'>\n\t\t\t\tTeam member Alysha Smith helps with the build when she&#8217;s not working on sponsorships or outreach\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>FIRST Robotics provides each team with basic kit to get them started.

He and co-captain Doug Nadrofsky guide the team when they run into issues and represent the team on-field at competitions. He said this year\u2019s FIRST Robotics competition is more challenging than in past years. \u201cIt\u2019s more a combination of the past year\u2019s challenges. In 2014, we had to be able to pick up ball and throw it into one of two nets and last year we had to be able to pick things up and drive over obstacles with a bit of slope,\u201d he said. \u201cThis year we have to be able to pick up a ball and throw it into a high net or a low net and will have to breach more extreme defences. There\u2019s a lot more to do compared to other years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not all about the competition. Teams can also earn a spot in the World Championships by demonstrating their commitment to community. \u201cA team could win a Chairman\u2019s Award by creating a video and doing a presentation about what your team does outside of competitions to get people interested in robotics and to work with charities,\u201d said Chapeskie.<\/p>\n<p>Coordinating that type of outreach is the role of team member Alysha Smith. \u201cI mainly do outreach and sponsorship finding. I\u2019m not a huge part of the build team but because it\u2019s build season I get pushed where I\u2019m needed and I try to learn all the new skills I can to support the team.\u201d Outreach includes the team\u2019s Technogirls program which teaches local grade seven and eight girls how to create cell phone apps, and taking robots to schools and local events to spark interest in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) disciplines.<\/p>\n<p>For sponsorships, Smith contacts businesses to explain what the team does and why sponsoring them is a good thing. Mainly they need funding, she said, but there are those pneumatic wheels to find, too. \u201cAny materials you could think of that could be used to build a robot would help us. We have a huge amount of local support \u2013 from Armstrong Dodge, Canadian Tire, Home Depot, and some independent business owners. And Kimberly-Clark is our namesake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Teacher Ian McTavish has been involved with the team for five years and often encourages students in his Computer Science classes to get involved.<\/p>\n<p>Their reasons for joining vary. Chapeskie switched from St. Dominic\u2019s to Huntsville High because his former school didn\u2019t have a robotics team. Both Gibson and Smith had their interest piqued by McTavish. \u201cI joined to see what it\u2019s like,\u201d said Smith. \u201cI love it. It\u2019s become a huge part of my life. I\u2019ve made a lot of friends through it and it has really changed my outlook.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Follow the team&#8217;s progress on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hhs4152\" target=\"_blank\">@HHS4152<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The North Bay competition runs from March 24 to 26 at Nipissing University.
