The Astrobots are team of high school aged students that build and operate robots competitively. The team is registered with FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) as team #4291, and competes in the North Carolina District. Based in Henderson, NC, our membership is made up of high school students in Vance County.
Every year students are presented with a game for their robot to play. The team must design, build, and test a robot to play the game. The team is scored based on their robot's performance in successfully playing the game. Students gain experience working with electronics, mechanical drive systems, and computer programming. In addition, students learn valuable soft skills like team work, time management, and leadership
