ROBOTICS FIELD
The HSC Robotics Field contains a full-sized competition FIRST Robotics playing field with custom built game elements from each year's game.
The field is located right next to the state-of-the-art machine shop which gives students access to the same tools they'll use in the workforce. Additionally, the mezzanine gives people a great view of the action going down on the field.
THE FIELD
The HSC Robotics Field is the exact same dimensions as a competition level FRC field. Each year, the elements on the field are also updated to the scale of the ones used in the game. A full sized field allows students to practice like they would play during competitions. It also allows the Center to host other teams for practice matches.
MACHINE SHOP
The machine shop gives students access to tools commonly used in manufacturing and engineering processes. CNC machines, routers, and more are all available for students to use alongside mentors who have years of experience using the tools in their respective workforce. Students then apply their experience on the machine to build the robot used during the competition season.
THE MEZZANINE
The mezzanine is located directly above the machine shop and gives a perfect, eagle-eye view looking at the field. It gives students who scout matches practice knowing what to watch for during competitions. It is also a great place for collaborative work, especially for working on designs and other business aspects of the team while being immersed in what the rest of the team is working on.
