2006/2007 Season:


  • The Oregon Robotics Tournament and Outreach Program starts a pilot FTC tournament.
  • The Benson Robotics Club was founded by Ian McBride and Nolan Dedricson. 
  • The tournament challenge involved picking up softballs and dropping them into towers. See the Gallery for pictures.
  • The BRC invents a robot with a conveyor belt left arm (Flex Armstrong) that can pick up three or four balls at a time and deliver them to the high goal.
  • ORTOP asks Benson if we are willing to split into two teams because we are ahead of everyone else and they are worried that they will not have enough teams for a full tournament.
  • The BRC iummediately goes home and builds a second robot in 4 hours (Ankle Biter).
