International teams at championship is a great indicator of growth,
VEX's interntational team numbers have steadily increased for years now, I think VEX has 95 international out of 397 teams this year.
From a quick glance at the FTC listings, I see 19 international teams out of 128 teams:
Quote:
China : 3
Mexico: 2
Netherlands: 2
Canada: 2
Taiwan: 2
India : 2
Saudi Arabia: 1
Australia: 1
Romania: 1
Singapore: 1
Russia : 1
South Korea : 1

1. Have any of these international teams competed at an FTC event before ?
2. Any thoughts on why FTC stopped at 128 teams ?
Good to see 5 Texas teams at the event , FTC has had an explosive growth in Texas over the last few years!
In my opinion, the hardest part of the competition is not that actual manufacture of the robot, but the design process. It is the enginners that go through the design process all the time that will have the edge in this competition, not the best machinist. - Wetzel [more]
