Technology High School Robotics
An NRL Combat Robotics Team
Tech High Robotics was founded in 2001 as a FIRST robotics team. For 12 years, we continued competing in FIRST before changing to a M.A.T.E. ROV robotics team, and finally, after COVID, we regrouped as combat robotics team. In this time, hundreds of students have contributed to the planning, building, and operating of various bots for a multitude of competitions. See our history page for more information.
What We’ve Been Up To




- 12lb Manufacturing + PLANTS CAD Begins
Hi all! There’s not too much to say this time, but it’s time for a little update (and we’ll include extra images)! Firstly, we’ve begun to manufacture the 12lb bots. For Free Hugs V3, the entire chassis has begun to be milled, and for Angular Aggression, the first piece of UHMW has been milled. Also for Angular Aggression, we’ve made a plastic model with many of the components that will be made with strong materials (not PLA). For both bots, the electronics have arrived. While the manufacturing continues, most of the CAD and electronics lessons have finished up for the PLANT teams. They are now planning their bots, first on paper and then with Fusion. In a month or so, designs will be printed, so that iterations can be made before the competition. We’re also very grateful to have secured a $5,900 grant from the city of Rohnert Park, which will allow us to fund both divisions of the program, while also upgrading a small arena for 1lb testing. We hope to update everyone again soon enough!
