PLEASANTVILLE - Student Gregory Salguero sounded happySunday afternoon that his robotics team from Putnam Northern Westchester BOCES school was vying for the lead in the Hudson Valley NY FIRST Tech Challenge regional contest.
Salguero, of Mahopac, said his parents work in the engineering field and that he would be interesting in pursuing that field as well someday.
The team from Putnam Northern Westchester BOCES, which is in Yorktown Heights, goes by the moniker Dead Voltage.
One of the Putnam Northern Westchester BOCES coaches, Gerry Markel, said it gets a new group of students ever year. "They've got to be quick learners," he said.
Twenty-eight teams of students participated in the regional event held at Pace University. Each match features four robots; one team's robot teams up with another's, and they face off against another alliance of robots.
For a 30-second period, students must tell robots what to do solely by using coding; during two minutes after that, the teams may use controllers to commands their bots.

Tasks in each match include picking up a ball, which include hurling balls into a kind of basket that is suspended above the robots. Another task has robots seek to touch a beacon, changing its color.
The winner of the regional competition moves on to a competition in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Over at Peekskill High School's team table the Iron Devils student Aldaine Heaven said his becoming part of the team "started by just liking how machines work."
He said he plans to study in college something in the technology area, "programming, most likely."
Heaven said while the team was not vying for the top spots, at least as of mid-afternoon, that's OK. He said it's the fun that counts.
Carlo Vidrini, Peekskill High's coach and a co-coach of Putnam Northern Westchester BOCES, said "the robotics program encompasses so many aspect of engineering," from electrical to software.
In a technological age, the students who participate are getting exposure to the tools and thinking skills they need.

First Tech Challenge: High schools battle in robotics competition - The Journal News | LoHud.com
More than a hundred students on 50 teams from schools across the state competed Saturday at the annual Belding High School Vex Robotics Tournament at Belding High School. Daily News/Cory Smith
BELDING All across the state of Michigan, robotics clubs are growing in popularity.
It has taken off so much so in recent years, according to Tom Daller, a Belding High School teacher, the competitions are starting to require an extra stage for competition. Instead of preliminary tournaments to decide which teams will go to state competitions, preliminary tournaments will be the deciding matches for regional competitions.
After regional competitions, qualifying teams will then move onto the state level and, if successful, they can get the chance to be invited to the worlds competition.
The popularity of robotics showed during Saturdays tournament at Redskin Arena at Belding High School. Fifty teams from across the state came together to compete in the mornings qualifying matches. Some of those lucky teams were able to move past the qualifying rounds into the main event the tournament to decide which teams would move on to compete at the state level.
There are 70 students involved with the robotics club both at the middle school level and the high school level, according to Daller. He said one of four Belding teams who made it to tournament play made it to the semifinals of the tournament. The rest fell to their opponents during the quarterfinals.

In previous years, students have made it further into tournament play, but Daller said the club has grown in size more rapidly in recent years and more students are involved.
As a coach Ill make the sacrifice (of more quality time with individuals) to give more students an opportunity to be involved with this program, Daller said.
Daller said some of the students who competed Saturday have never built a robot before and there is a learning curve associated with that process.
There are some shining stars in the middle school teams, he said. And this way theyll have four years in high school (to be involved in robotics).
Not only were there more students participating than in previous years, but Daller said parents have been more involved this year than in previous years.
Its Dallers hope that other people from the community will continue to take an interest in the robotics competitions and the different areas of knowledge students need to utilize in order to be successful in tournaments like Saturdays.
Theres so much knowledge I think there are a lot of individuals out there that have the background in design and have that time to spend. We need to start looking to those people to pass on that knowledge to these kids, he said.
Despite the challenges students from Belding teams faced Saturday, they remain determined to figure out where they can improve and make the necessary changes.
For C.J. Bunce, a 16-year-old sophomore, one of the best parts about being involved in the robotics club is to be a part of a family.
Everybody here is a family, no matter where youre from. Everybody is friendly with each other, he said.
Bunce plays football and is involved in track, as well. He said the competition in those sports is much more fierce and people on other teams arent as willing to offer support or advice during a competition.
Bunce said he recently broke his hand, which left him unable to play football. In order to fill his time, he got more involved with robotics and has been interested in it ever since. He said his favorite part of the process is to build the robots while his least favorite part is programming the robot.
Luckily, Bunce said, other teammates offer their support and help him with the programming portion of the competition.
We all help each other out when someone needs help, even if were further behind, he said. We have to work together to get further.
A teammate of Bunces, Zach Brown, 16, another sophomore, said he also really enjoys building the robots. He said hes learned other valuable skills being part of the robotics club, including how to communicate effectively with teammates and total strangers.
I just think (building robots) is a useful skill to have, Brown said.

Dive Brief:
The rise in automation is almost always linked to greater precision and reduced labor costs. Yet, the need for skill upgrades for existing employees facing automation upgrades must be factored in to the alleged savings to be gained.
Workers trained in robotics maintenance are still uncommon, particularly in the supply chain field. Although technology and manufacturing apprenticeships are making a comeback, the effort is still fresh, meaning that the total cost of automation, including training, is still high. A perceived value in automation continues, however, even when improved precision and safety are not required.
While the incorporation of robotics holds our fascination as humans, it is easy to overlook some of the challenges to employing robots. There's a high initial investment coupled with an ongoing cost for maintenance. As with any machine, breakdowns do happen, so the more important the task, the greater the need for more than one robot, not to mention redundancies necessary to ensure that workflow is not hindered.
One area where robotics may be slow to infiltrate is in customer-facing interaction. Consumers could easily dislike the experience of an all-robotic fast food chain, for example, in which case lost business would negate the salary savings. What is still most likely is that robots will serve best invisibly, such as in manufacturing.

Report: Nearshoring favors robotics, will require heavy capital investment - Supply Chain Dive
Carson City, Nev. (KOLO) At Eagle Valley Middle School, six students are working to improve their LEGO robot. They're still not satisfied, even though it played a critical role in them winning the trophy at the Northern Nevada FIRST LEGO LEAGUE Championship last month.
"It was just an incredible feeling!" says Nevan McIlwee, 13. "To see all our hard work just paid off to get to that."
For this group, which calls itself the Jedi Engineers, winning that competition isn't enough. But it was a big deal. They beat out dozens of other teams at the competition at UNR. Teams were judged on their robots' ability to complete tasks and on their problem-solving skills.
Now, this group of seventh and eighth graders is gearing up for the World Championship Tournament in April in Houston, Texas. They will compete against more than a hundred other teams who are also champions in their own countries.
"It means a lot," says Kai Miller, 12, a Jedi Engineer. "I mean, we're going to see teams from all over the world. Teams from Europe, Africa, China, Russia, South America... It's really, really big for our community."
And while it was tough enough to qualify for this tournament, raising money is the new challenge.
"We are doing huge fundraising because it is going to be so expensive to go to World Festival," says Lisa Stocke-Koop, Eagle Valley STEM teacher and LEGO coach. "It's going to be over $20,000 before we're done."
That's because the students have also been invited to compete in an international tournament in England. Their teacher believes the kids are not just an inspiration for other students.
"These guys, they bring tears to my eyes," says Stocke-Koop. "When I look at what they've done and I look at how proud they are of their achievements... every one of these kids could change the world. And I am just so thrilled that I'm a part of their education."
The team has set up a gofundme account online to raise money for travel expenses. You can find it here: https://www.gofundme.com/lego-team-to-world-championship

Local robotics students headed to World Championship tournament - KOLO
MERIDIAN, Idaho (KBOI)
A Meridian robotics team is putting the final touches on a robot before it competes against several others around the region.
Team 'Bullbots,' based out of Mountain View High School, worked nonstop Saturday building their robot for the Idaho FIRST Robotics Regional Competition.
The robot will be competing against others the weekend of March 30. The goal is to create a 120-pound robot that can hang game elements on pegs, climb a rope, and shoot balls into a goal.
"We just, like, all decided on an idea really fast and we've just been able to go and it worked out very well," said Tiffany Jensen, the Bullbots team mechanical lead. "Our robot is actually going to be really good."
This is Jensen's second year on team Bullbots. She's been climbing the ranks and now leads a team of mechanics.
There are only a handful of girls on the team, and Jensen hopes her leadership will encourage other females to join.
The FIRST Robotics Competition provides a hands on approach to learning science, technology, engineering and math. Students also learn programming and electric work.
"I learn a lot more here than I usually do in school honestly," said Egan Schafer, the Bullbots team programming lead.

Their hard work and dedication paid off. //Cougars advanced into the semifinals ranked No. 1. The team battled it out against a rival Chatham team, Fear The Gear, who were sitting in the fourth-place seat. //Cougars easily defeated their opponents and friends, ending the FTC season for Fear The Gear, while advancing themselves into the finals. In the finals, //Cougars once again easily defeated their competition, officially going undefeated for the day, winning an impressive ninestraight matches.
As the first place captain and winners, //Cougars secured an advancement slot onto the FTC New Jersey Garden State Rumble Championship on Feb.26.
If winning the competition wasnt enough, //Cougars also impressed the judges with the immense amount of community outreach, efforts into their business plan, and also their detailed engineering notebook. During the awards portion of the day,
//Cougars was nominated as a top contender for the Motivate Award, an award which celebrates //Cougars for being a team that exemplifies the essence of the FIRST Tech Challenge through team building, team spirit, and exhibited enthusiasm.
The team didnt stop there, they also brought home the Think Award, which is given to the team that best reflects the journey the team took as they experienced the engineering design process during their build season. The engineering section of their notebook should focus on their design, the underlying science and mathematics of the robot design and game strategies, the design, re-design, successes and those interesting moments when things arent going as planned. Through an extremely detailed log of events, sketches, and CAD drawings, //Cougar walked away with this award.
//Cougars hard work had clearly paid off. With trophies in hand and medals around their necks, most would be happy here. However, the hardworking students of CHS were eager to hear the nominees for the Inspire Award, the highest honor of the day. This award is only given to teams that were top contenders for all of the awards, highly functioning robots, and an inspiration to other teams. Although, the team had already secured a place at the State Championship, the Inspire Award winner and runner up also receive an invitation to the tournament. //Cougars took home the first runner up position for the Inspire Award.
//Cougars will now join their sister team, Chatham Cougars, who had already secured a bid to the State Championship at West Windsor Plainsboro High School North at the end of the month. The teams, both coached byRyan, will spend the next three weeks perfecting their robot and programming hoping to dominate the competition at the State Championship and earn a spot at the FTC Super Eastern Regional competition held at the University of Scranton in March.

Carnegie Mellons Robotic Academy staff and development team are housed in the National Robotics Engineering Center (NREC), where robots for business, government, and industry are designed, prototyped, and tested just outside our office doors.
The CCRC projects goal is to integrate more computational thinking into robotics classrooms. CMRA has seen that many schools robotic classrooms started because the school became involved with a robotics competition. Many robotic competitions consist of a set of mechanically challenging activities and dont require sophisticated programming solutions for teams to be successful. This project builds on the existing robotics competition infrastructure and then extends these activities in ways that foreground computational thinking.
Robotics provide a great opportunity to introduce students to computer science. Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh develops, tests, and refines a Theory of Robotic Programming Badges that can be applied to Computer Science Education. This project builds on lessons learned as CMRA built the Computer Science Student Network and integrates a complete badge system in Robot Virtual Worlds. The project measures the ability of badges to motivate student learning, to be accurate indicators of student performance, and if the badges are easily understood by students.
For years we have heard that teachers are using robotics to teach mathematics. This project studied existing (2008) robotics education pedagogy and then developed multiple strategies that foregrounded proportional reasoning, a big idea in mathematics, that can be taught using robots. CMRA developed multiple tools that can help teachers foreground mathematics using robots:
Abstraction Bridges Link
Robots in Motion Link
Expedition Atlantis Game Link
Expedition Atlantis Teachers Guide PDF Content
Robot Virtual World Measurement Toolkit MP4 Video
and many written papers Link
Mathematics is an enabler of all future innovation and CMRA continues to look for innovative ways to foreground mathematics in all of its activities.
The Computer Science Student Network (CS2N) started as a collaborative research project between Carnegie Mellon University and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) designed to increase the number of students pursuing advanced Computer Science and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (CS-STEM) degrees. CS2N has morphed into an online portal where students and teachers can find activities, competitions, and training designed to help them learn basic programming.
