Welcome to the website of the Tronic Titans, Team 3161. We are a FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) robotics team from Holy Trinity Catholic Secondary School in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
The Tronic Titans compete in FRC (FIRST Robotics Competition), an annual competition which challenges teams of students from around the world to design, build, and program a 120lb robot in 6 weeks. The robot must perform specialized tasks, each year involving a new game and robot, while competing against other teams in 3 versus 3 matches in tournament style regional events.
FIRST competitions are based on the mentality of “Gracious Professionalism”, the premise that fierce competition and mutual gain can coexist, and “Coopertition”, the philosophy that teams can and should help and cooperate with each other even as they compete.
These competitions are not just about the robot, though. Awards are presented to select teams at competitions for exemplary community involvement, professional media pieces and their efforts at spreading the message and values of FIRST. Our team has won several over our last two seasons for our extraordinary efforts.
The Tronic Titans are also involved in FLL (FIRST Lego League), a program which encourages children ages 9 through 14 to become interested in the fields of science and technology. Our members mentor numerous teams, and run an annual regional tournament for teams in the Halton region.
Just as we mentor FLL teams, the Tronic Titans rely on our mentors, who share their knowledge and teach us new skills. The success of our team also depends on the help of our sponsors, without whom none of what we do would be possible.
To learn more about us, please explore our website, view the resources it has to offer, keep up with us on our blog, and feel free to contact us with any questions.
