Robotic ruckus: Students from Richmond’s Lucille Brown Middle School compete in the “Rover Ruckus FIRST Tech Challenge” held at Richmond Community High School last Friday. Teams of 12 students from the city’s middle schools, Franklin Military Academy and Community High designed, built and programmed a competition robot from a kit without instructions. Then, using remote controls, the students had 2½ minutes to maneuver their robots to pick up as many different shaped objects as possible and place them in a container. The robot placing the most objects in the container during the time limit was declared the winner. Results of the competition: Community High, 1st place; Franklin Academy, 2nd place; and Elkhardt-Thompson Middle School, 3rd place. (Ronald E. Carrington/Richmond Free Press)
