FIRST Robotics Team 2530
FIRST FRC® Team 2530, Inconceivable, is based in Rochester, Minnesota and "builds students who build robots".
We encourage the pursuit of learning through science, technology, engineering, aesthetics, and mathematics (STEAM). Additionally, we promote Gracious Professionalism, student leadership, and teamwork in all aspects of our students’ lives. While Team 2530's 45 studens attend three rivaling high schools and two middle schools, we exemplify "Coopertition" among our members. FRC® is one of the few extracurricular activities that transcends school boundaries and creates a unified team. All school colors and rivalries are set aside for Inconceivable Lime Green.
With an atmosphere of creativity and innovation, Team 2530 inspires future business leaders, engineers, graphic artists, and programmers through community involvement, spreading the message of FIRST®, and fostering meaningful connections with sponsors and adult volunteer mentors. Team 2530 operates with strong communication, which is crucial to successfully coordinate and organize year-round volunteer events and technical training.
Join Our TeamEvery year, we are tasked with building a competitive robot within 6 weeks. To manage this time crunch, we split into these different sub-teams:
Branding, graphics, fundraising, sponsorship, media, and a ton of thank you notes.
Designs the robot using Computer Aided Design (CAD), then uses that design to build the robot with power tools.
Develops and tests code for the robot using Java, sometimes acheiving autonomous driving for a while.
Strategizes the best way to gain points by anylyzing previous years and other teams' strategy, then drives.
