We are the Dream Machines, an FTC (FIRST Tech Challenge) robotics team based in Fremont, California. Despite being formed in the midst of a worldwide pandemic, our team was able to persevere through the challenges that we faced. Since our inception, our team has received multiple awards for consistent management and an outstanding robot.
Our team's vision has three key aspects. One goal is to improve our abilities of coding and building robots. We also are aspiring to expand our knowledge of core STEM subjects. Lastly, we want to have a huge impact on our community as a whole.
This team was founded in the summer of a life-altering pandemic, when almost everything had to be done online and there were scarce in-person interactions. Even though there were many obstacles in our way, we were able to build a substantial robot and win the Judges' Award in one of our remote competitions.
