with Pak Ming Lau (694)
A summary of everything that 694 has done this year for beta testing.
with Nazifa Prapti (5599)
The lecture will go over all the aspects of wiring the robot. It will include a description of different motor controllers, construction techniques, assembly of the electronics board, electronics checklist. I will talk about all things to keep in mind when assembling the electronics board so that way we can easily access all our wires quickly and efficiently in case anything goes wrong during competition.
with Steven Lei (FTC 479)
Various types of linear motion in FTC: slides, rack and pinion, chain, and lead screw. Emphasis on linear slides.
with Jeanne Boyarsky (694)
Gradle is the build system used by FRC. This session will explain the basics of Gradle, how it relates to FRC and how you can customize your build.
with Joseph Blay and Brian Maher
This highly interactive session will allow students and mentors to learn and share best practices for FRC scouting and strategy. We will begin by discussing 694 and 2791's approaches and then we will discuss attendees' methods, problems, and potential improvements.
with Howard Cohen (FIRST Community)
For years, the 6 week build season has been ingrained into the FIRST experience. Now a new era of FIRST is upon us as we explore the extra time we have, and time we lose.
with Dan Lavin (694)
How brushed and brushless motors work, in theory and practice, with a critical look at motor curves.
with Winston Peng (694)
Directed towards Java teams. Teaches about how to program simultaneously with both Java and Kotlin, the advantages of using Kotlin, and how Kotlin could be used to supplement Java Education.
with Emily Adam and Adalia Spadafora (771)
From ramps to champs, three members of FRC team 771 talk about the technical problems they’ve overcome throughout the years. This presentation looks at problems in strategy, dynamics, and sustainability using real-life examples (oh no), following the “glow-up” of SWAT.

with Jeremy Zang (694)
Basics of swerve drive design and programming
with Sam Belliveau (694)
This lecture will cover the technology used to filter controller and motor inputs. It also happens to be the case that the smoothing technology also has its uses in evaluating stock prices.
with Brian Maher
Contrary to popular belief, most FRC events are not won or lost during a match, but during alliance selection. Learn how to use scouting data to make a pick list, navigate the alliance selection process, and make a good impression on alliance captains in order to have your best shot at a blue banner.
with Brianna Leung (694)
Linkages are one of the most fundamental ways humans have translated motion. This lecture will cover the fundamentals of forming linkages and their many spicy real-world applications!
with Tahsin Ahmed (694)
How to use motion profiling to better control robot motion in autonomous.
with Asha Mills-Emmett (865)
"A Closer Look at Leadership" will address the common misconception that leadership requires a position of power. I will talk about what it really takes to be a good leader, and discuss strategies that anyone can use to ensure good leadership practice.
