Contest Table Page


The robots being built in the Discover Mechanical Engineering Program are intended for use in a soccer-style game, which requires a specially designed and constructed playing field. This contest table will be tailored for the game's requirements. Currently, the contest table itself is under development, but below is an image of one of our current design ideas.

Here are some facts about the contest table:

  • Measures 16 feet long and 12 feet wide
  • Constructed from 80/20, an industrial-grade modular framing product
  • Floored with industrial-grade specialty flooring from Oscoda Plastics
  • Comes apart for easy storage
