Hutto, Texas: Hundreds of students from across the state participated in the 2021- 2022 State Robotics Contest at Hutto High School on April 23, 2022. Participants in TCEA robotics contests compete in teams of two to four, organized into four categories: Advanced Arena, Intermediate Arena, Advanced Inventions, and Intermediate Inventions.
Advanced and Intermediate Arena teams worked in alliances with their team-built robots to complete several autonomous and driver-controlled tasks. Advanced and Intermediate Inventions teams designed custom robots to specifically solve a unique problem of the team’s choosing.
