well I am very lucky in the fact that I am at the only school in Texas that has Robotics as a magnet program (please tell me if i am wrong). the year before i got to high school the kids where bored with first and needed a new challenge. As the story goes some kid said "come look at this website on the computer!" people looked and saw. the next week prototype robots where being made. . now to answer your question about how I got involved. Its simple, I am now a senior and co-captain of our team so I cant not be involved.

hmmm. thats is a tough question to tell you the truth. BotsIQ definitely gets more effort but that is because we have a year to design it. so all that effort gets spread out. With first A LOT of effort is compacted into a short amount of time and during first more effort per day is being put into robotics than any other time with BotsIQ. Kinda weird but yeah.
