As a conclusion to the annual freshman robot project, top robots from each IBET competed in the all-IBET Robot Competition. Students from Weyanoke Elementary School judged the beauty competition while the tech teachers judged the obstacle course, speed, and torque competitions. The TJ Robotics Team even stopped by to show off some of the robots they created over the school year.
