Reefscape: 2025
|
In 2025, we competed in the FIRST Robotics Competition as a 10th year team with our robot, Plunk. The game that year was called FIRST Reefscape. In this game team score points by scoring pvc pipes called coral onto a reef and/or scoring an inflatable gym called algae into a high net or into a processor. The end game was to cling onto a cage for additional points.

PlunkOur 2025 robots name was Plunk. It could score all levels on the reef, deep climb and dislodge algae. This robot resulted in our most successful year yet. Its name was given because of the sound it made when dislodging coral on the reef.
