This is our tenth year as a sponsor of the Pacific Northwest FIRST FRC Robotics District Championship. This year the championship is being held in beautiful Portland Oregon at the Veteran’s Memorial Coliseum April 5-7th. Autodesk will have a booth as well a a lounge for mentors. There are over 50 regional teams qualified to compete in this event including the team that I have been a mentor on the past 3 seasons, The Flaming Chickens Team 1540 of Catlin Gabel. Team 1540 used Autodesk Fusion 360 for the entire design of their competition robot “Pandora” this year.
The winners of this event will be moving onto the FIRST Championships in Houston Texas.
Admission is free and the competitions are amazing to see live in person and get inspired by young adults designing, building, and programming robots in this competition. For those unable to attend the matches in person the matches will also be streamed on the web (https://www.thebluealliance.com/event/2018pncmp).
