FRC Team 1640 was founded with 12 students in 2005 by DEHS physics teacher Paul Sabatino. Mr. Sabatino had previously mentored FRC Team 104 in the West Chester School District.

The team's name is Sab-BOT-age, in honor of Paul Sabatino's vital contributions.

In 2011, the team had to leave the aegis of the Downingtown Area School District and formed Downingtown Area Robotics, Inc. (DAR). The FRC 1640 team now encompasses nearly thirty students from throughout Chester County and more than a dozen mentors. While the organization has expanded its scope to include a FIRST Tech Challenge team and hosts FIRST LEGO League events, FRC 1640 remains solidly the core of DAR.

Mission

To inspire and educate pre-college students within the greater Downingtown Area school district in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through hands-on experiences with robotic technology. Build knowledge, an understanding of planning and project management and life skills (especially gracious professionalism, team work, effective communications, coopetition and leadership). Promote expansion of this program both within and beyond the Downingtown District.
