Design Award
7423 Flaming Phoenix - Winner
8645 Robotic Doges - 2nd Place
7182 Mechanical Paradox Cubed - 3rd Place
Award Details
Close
The intent of the Design Award is to expand on the challenge, inspiring Teams to incorporate industrial design into their robots. These elements can be shown in the simplicity of the design as it applies to the tasks, the look and feel of the robot, and how the design allows us to think of robots in new ways. The Design aspect must serve a function - but they should also differentiate the robot in a unique fashion.
Here is what the judges had to say about the winner:
This robot was a blur of color as they sped to the top of the judges' list. Their engineering principals are out of this world. The decision wasn't black and white, it was black and red!
Rockwell Collins Innovate Award
7182 Mechanical Paradox Cubed - Winner
8645 Robotic Doges - 2nd Place
7244 Out of the Box Robotics - 3rd Place
Award Details
Close
The Rockwell Collins Innovate Award celebrates a Team that the Judges feel has the most Innovative and Creative Robot design solution to the FIRST Tech Challenge. Elements of this Award include elegant design, robustness and 'out of the box' thinking with regard to design. This Award may address the design of the whole robot or some sub-assembly component of the robot. The creative component needs to work consistently, but a robot does not have to work all of the time during Matches to be considered for this Award.
Here is what the judges had to say about the winner:
This team rocked the judges with their intake system. You would have to go to Mars to find another design this innovative. It's no paradox why this team wins, wins, wins.

The Inspire Award is given to the Team that the Judges felt truly embodied the 'challenge' of the FIRST Tech Challenge program. The Team that receives this award is a strong ambassador for FIRST programs and works to promote FIRST and make it loud in their community. The Team that receives this Award has performed well in all Judging categories and was chosen by the Judges as a model FIRST Tech Challenge Team on and off the playing field. The Judges used Match performance, observations made during interviews and in the pit area, the Team's Engineering Notebook, and performance on the playing field in determining the winner.
Here is what the judges had to say about the winner:
This team was a solid performer across the board with a well designed and documented robot. Their outreach and dedication to FIRST is putting them on the map. With all the fetching of game elements this year, there's no surprise that they are leading the pack.
