King's College London Mathematics School's First Tech Challenge Team
We are KCLMS's premier robotics team, competing in the international First Tech Challenge. Our mission is to inspire innovation, develop technical excellence, and foster collaborative problem-solving through competitive robotics. We're building a legacy of engineering at KCLMS and promoting collaborative STEM for students of all backgrounds.
The FIRST Tech Challenge is an international robotics competition with over 20 years of history
Teams of students aged 16-18 design, build, and program autonomous robots to compete in challenging game scenarios. Every season brings a new challenge requiring innovative solutions.
Compete locally, regionally, and nationally against teams from around the world. Top teams advance to international championships, showcasing their engineering excellence.
Develop university and career-ready skills in programming, mechanical engineering, CAD design, project management, and teamwork that last a lifetime.
Beyond competition, FTC teams engage in community outreach, inspiring the next generation of engineers and making STEM accessible to all.
Our rookie season competing in the DECODE Challenge
In the DECODE Challenge, robots must read a sequence of green and purple balls using computer vision and QR codes, then launch "artifacts" into hoops in the correct order.
Engineered for excellence, built for competition
Our robot features mecanum wheels for omnidirectional movement, a precision ball launcher with flywheel technology, computer vision for autonomous operation, and a robust aluminum frame designed for durability.
15 passionate students united by innovation and excellence
Our mechanical engineers and CAD designers bring innovative solutions to complex challenges, iterating designs until perfection.
Software engineers developing autonomous routines, computer vision systems, and teleoperated control with Python and Java.
From drivers to business managers, every role matters. We succeed together through teamwork and mutual support.
