The Monty Pythons Robotics Team
To all the incoming students and returning students at PMSA, we want to wish you a warm welcome! The Robotics Team would love to get to know you more, and what we stand for. We hope you are inspired by the passionate students on the team, and that you decide to join this year as well for our season!
What is the PMSA Robotics Team?
The Monty Pythons Robotics Team is an FRC Team, which is brought to us by FIRST, the organization we are a part of. We are assigned a team number that you will hear often (2151!). We build a robot for a competition every year for a chance to compete nationally. The competition is a game, as you can see above, and we compete in alliances with other teams to gather the most points!
We have around 30+ members on our team separated into the following departments
- Build
- Focuses on the engineering aspect of the robot, and uses power tools while working in groups to follow the robot design and constraints given.
- Programming
- Codes in Java and connects with Electronics to make sure the robot runs smoothly and can complete the challenges during competitions.
- Electronics
- Builds the electronics board, makes sure every wire is connected, and troubleshoots any problems as they arise.
- Design
- Implements CAD and online programs to design the robot to the constraints, and uses creativity to make the robot come to life.
- Marketing
- While not physically working on the robot, this department focuses on outreach for the team, works on the planning of STEM events to reach minorities, photographs events, and works on the logistics for our team.
