The Monta Vista Robotics Team (MVRT) is a high school robotics team in Cupertino, CA competing in the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Competition. FIRST announces a new game every year in January and challenges teams to build a robot to play for the game. Through six intense weeks, MVRT members work with engineers and advisors to brainstorm, design, prototype, fabricate, assemble, wire and program a 120 pound robot. After the six-week build period, the robot is immediately shipped off to compete at regional and championship competitions.
