🚀 FTC Robotics in Action! 🤖 Essex County West Caldwell Tech robotics students hit the First Tech Challenge: Decode field today to test their autonomous code — and they’re leveling up in a big way! From the outside, it may look like “just coding a robot,” but our engineers are diving into robot localization — one of the most advanced concepts in robotics. 🔍 💡 Why localization matters: Localization allows a robot to understand where it is on the field, make decisions in real time, and adjust i

Over the weekend, FIRST Tech Challenge, a global robotics competition for students ages 12-18, revealed this year’s new challenge: CENTERSTAGE presented by RTX. As part of FIRST's celebration of STEM in the arts, our own Mickey Perez of Pratt & Whitney shared with students the beauty in the design of our products. Good luck to all participating this season!
