Don’t miss the action when high school robotics teams converge on OMSI for a day of mechanical madness at the FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) regional competition, Hot Shot! Get an up-close look as two teams of robots race to move 9” plastic balls into different goals around the playing field. Each team is given a kit and a LEGO NXT brain to design and build robots to compete in the challenge.
