FRC Team 1640 was invited to demonstrate DEWBOT VI (not to mention a kinder, gentler and lower-maintenance version of robotics) at Northeast Robot Club's (NERC) Franklin Institute Robot Conflict. DEWBOT very wisely stayed out of the cage. FTC Team 3489 (Wall family) also represented FIRST at this robot combat event.

The Robot Conflict was a great event drawing many very cleverly-designed robots.

DEWBOT drew a lot of attention and made some new friends.

Participants:

FRC: Carly, Ben R, Jack, Garrison, Andrew
FTC: Sasha, Nichole
Mentors: Scott Featherman, Clem & Faith McKown, Mike Rizzo, Rita Wall (FTC)
