Programmers from FRC team 610 used their Java programming skills sharpened by FIRST to compete in the MasterCard NXT challenge last weekend in Toronto.
The group of 5 students (Grade 11/12) faced off against universities like Waterloo and UofT and professionals from software houses. They were able to finish in the top 5 and qualified for the "People's Choice Award".
Their business pitch is available here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMbgdmo3K-w). If you like their prototype, please take one minute to vote (http://nxt.mastercard.ca) for them (3rd one down the list). It's great to see FIRST trained programmers doing well; they are only trailing one team in the standings!!!
Every vote counts! Thank you!!
