The Cyber Bears is a competition team comprised of high school students from different schools organized to participate in the FIRST® Robotics Competition. This competition combines the excitement of sports with the rigors of science and technology. High school students use sophisticated technology to build and program industrial-size robots for a challenging field game.
Teams of students are challenged to design, build, and program robots and compete for awards, while they also create a team identity, raise funds, hone teamwork skills, and advance respect and appreciation for STEM within the local community.
From the machines that move us to the food that sustains us to the wireless technologies that connect us, energy plays an essential role in keeping our world running. During our 2022-2023 robotics season, FIRST® ENERGIZE℠presented by Qualcomm will help FIRST teams across our programs will reimagine the future of sustainable energy and power their ideas forward. To empower young people to be leaders and innovators, this year’s energy theme addresses global challenges related toUnited Nations Sustainable Development Goal #7-- focused on ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all. This is the moment to get energized to innovate!
Cyber Bears are immersed in research, problem-solving, coding, and engineering while exploring the future of transportation. Often you might find yourself asking "What bolt am I holding?" or "Is this an Inch or Metric screw?". In this year competition season Haas Automation, Inc takes a thorough look at the many important aspects of screw identification that can help you figure out exactly what fastener you're dealing with.
As the Cyber Bears are exposed to global concepts and new skills, the average spectator seated in the stands may think they are watching a robotic basketball game with occasionally injuries. Cyber Bears create the robots that move cargo (basketballs) into hoops on the ground and in the air.
Cybers Bears learn how to advocate for more funding from our state legislators.
