RoboExpo

Londonderry High School Robotics - FRC Team 1058 - PVC Pirates

RoboExpo is an all-encompassing public outreach effort showcasing FIRST and the programs it has to offer. Utilizing the high-traffic nature of a shopping mall, teams from all four FIRST programs demonstrate their robots to gain the attention and excitement of shoppers, and then engage spectators in discussion about FIRST, and how it can play a role in inspiring students to pursue careers in science and technology.
