Bullard Bots + BEST yields HIGH OCTANE



 Where Are We From?


The Bullard Bots are from a small high school nestled within Bullard, Texas, a town with a population of a mere 1,150 people.  This is our first year to enter into the BEST competition, and we are extremely excited!  We have worked long and hard to construct a robot that is able to perform and assortment of tasks.  We've also created a uniquely individual design for both our t-shirts and our hard-hats.  Our booth has been ingeniously crafted to include our logo and several engaging and educational activities.  The intricate structure of our robot required extensive planning and precise assembly.  We are very pleased with our final design of everything and are looking forward to competing!

Our Scientific Research and Design class joined the BEST Robotics competition this year.  This class is project based where each student is responsible for researching, creating models, and designing different projects throughout the year.  Learning to take responsibility for each part of a group project is quite a challenge and requires us to trust each other to complete our assigned portions.

BEST robotics competition is a six weeks project for us.  BEST stands for Boosting Engineering Science and Technology.  Within this project we (students only) must successfully complete the following:

1.  Build a robot from random objects to compete in a set game scenario

2.  Create a booth to display our group's work  (this is similar to a science fair project display, but on a much large form)

3.  Create an engineering notebook and research paper that demonstrates the games theme (30 - 50 pages of detailed graphs, charts, cad drawing, and research)

4.  Design a youtube video to highlight BEST and Bullard robotics

5.  T-shirt and hardhat design

6.  Presentation for judges (public speaking - communication)

7.  Programming a robot's brain

8.  Demonstrate community awareness - BEST, our group, and the technology available (design a website and speak to local schools)
