New to robotics? This short video from FIRST explains what FRC is all about.

 

Aquidneck Island Robotics is home to the only community-based FIRST Robotics Competition team in Rhode Island

We’ve been competing at the varsity level since 1996! Students in grades 8–12 from any school (public, private, or homeschool) are invited to tour our workshop, meet the team, and see what it takes to compete on a team that treats robotics like the serious sport that it is.
