2016: Robo Lions visit Maxxis

On August 26, 2016, the Robo Lions were invited to the Maxxis Facility to present the organization's efforts in advancing the STEM initiative. The team explained the dynamics of their 2016 Stronghold Robot including vision tracking and its autonomous abilities. We explained how this year proved to be fierce but it was no match for Team 1261 who bore through bent metals and broken LEDs. We also demonstrated the astounding durability of the robot's tires, supplied by Maxxis themselves! We loved the chance to demonstrate how Maxxis' support helped us out throughout the season, and are incredibly grateful for the warn welcome they offered us this week. We are forever thankful for sponsors like Maxxis who continue to support us in our endeavors.
