FIRST Robotics Competition: today’s challenge for tomorrow’s engineers
When thousands of students arrive at Atlanta’s Georgia Dome to compete at the 2009 FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), they will have a new weapon up their sleeve. The electronics the teams use in their robots can now be modified and expanded using a professional electronics design tool; Altium Designer.
FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a not-for-profit organization founded by inventor Dean Kamen to inspire young people’s interest and participation in science and technology. The FRC is an annual event that challenges teams of students to develop a robot in a six-week time frame using a standard kit of parts and a common set of rules.
This is not the first year Altium has sponsored the event. FIRST and Altium have a history of advancing the way the students can modify and enhance their robots.
