This photograph illustrates how far we've come as a program: two Pearl City Charger teams in an alliance at the State Championship finals, hosted at our own high school, looking on in anticipation as both robots score.

Working on my robot at the 2014-2015 Vex Natoinals NZ.

It is about me and my teammates were reseting the field after the match.

As a team leader of 687D, I organized a team meeting in our senior mentor’s house during Winter Break. The team brainstormed ideas, made some sketches, and re-design our robot so that we will be prepared for our next competition. As what our team motto says,

“It’s Gonna Be HUGE!”

We Made It !!!

In the competition on 12/12/2015, other team's robot got a problem and blocked the way. Our robot pushed that robot out and parked on the ramp at the last moment. The picture captured the exciting monent at the end of the game.

These Robocougars embody the spirit of VEX IQ; working together, giving their best effort, taking their work seriously...but not too seriously.  A sense of humor breaks the tension of competition and the whole team shares in the fun!

            The Blur, captures our drive team member in an outstanding moment.  After multiple changes to our robot, we discovered that he has a talent for loading balls onto the catapult at a rapid pace.  The ball is only inches away from the robot, yet another ball is already being loaded. 

Its always fun to share knowledge with the next wave of robot geniuses! In this picture the 8th grade students (on the left) induct new members into the basics of VEX.

My Robotics Team was honored to have been invited to the American Airlines Skyball for our efforts through our STEM Project; to create awareness and advocate action through our online petition to encourage the VA to provide robotic mobility devices, like exoskeletons, to our...

Progression of (catapult) ideas

In this photo, a team member is checking the tightness of the shaft in the motor to make sure that it does not come loose during the competition. Just like every other part of the robot, this shaft is checked to make sure it is safe before each round.

Robotics isn't just about programming, controlling and building; one of the less known aspects of VEX Robotics is the Engineering Notebook. It records down what your team does and most importantly what you have learnt from the whole VEX experience.

When you become an enginner 10 or 20 years down the road, you're not going to remember how to stack 7 skyrises within 30 seconds, or build a functioning catapult that can launch balls. But you will definitely still need the skills and knowledge of keeping a Enginnering Notebook.

Recently, we have been re-branding our club as TDMS Robotics. For the day I was given the opportunity to use the school drone to take some photographs to advertise our club. This is a photograph of the middle school students with my team's robot.

This was our first competition of the year and you can see on my face that I was thinking about a lot. I remember thinking "Where do I go right now?" and "I need to keep my robot safe". In this picture I am clinging tightly to our robot because I was worried about dropping it  or about having someone bump into it. I couldn't figure out where I was supposed to be so I was also looking around for my coach.  

A senior robotics club member, Joe, teaches 7 year old Chloe how to drive the Hereford Zone Vex Robot for the first time.

This photograph ilustrates how two separates minds can complement each other in the mechanical and programming functions of the designed Robot.  Two students working together to find precision. Two minds that concentrates in one goal. The nothing but net game.

After creating our design the real work began, throwing accurately the ball in the net. The photo contains important elements in the contruction of our launcher as is the ball to adjust the output,tools, the battery power, the micro and all cables.

This picture was taken with a GoPro strapped to our robot, and demonstrates the teamwork that goes into competing in robotics.

This Vex Robot was created by the commitment and determination of the Sierra Vista Robotics program. Over a period of time this team not only created a Vex Robot it made a family.  

It will consist of a picture of a team member working on the robot.

The calm before the storm - last second tinkering and strategizing before the first match of the day.

We’ve got spirit, yes we do. We’ve got spirit how ‘bout you?
