Re: Robotics Teams/Competitions for Adults

I don't know as they are particularly accessible (certainly not if you're just looking for a small hobby), but there are the NASA Centennial Challenges, such as the Sample Return Robot Challenge that WPI has held the last several years.

Re: Robotics Teams/Competitions for Adults

As a combat robotics competitor, I can definitely reccomend taking part in robogames/motorama/local events The way competitors get along with each other and help each other out in any way possible is the closest thing to FRC that I can think of. Best of luck to you if you pursue robot combat!
