My Project

The Robotics Club has been completing in the Utah Underwater Robotic competition for 4 years. We have been able to enter 8-10 teams each year. We love giving the kids a fun hands on challenging experience to learn engineering.

The supplies for their ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) will help them to be able to build more reliable projects.

In past years we have struggled with cheap not fully waterproof motors. These motors would greatly enhance the experience of the club and give them more time using their bots and less time trouble shooting faulty parts. We are also able to reuse motors from previous years, so these motors will benefit students for many years.
