Competition

Over Under

Striker on the Over Under Field in front of the net, having just scored a green Triball under the net.

In this Unit, you will build Striker, the HeroBot for the 2023-2024 VRC Over Under game and learn how to score. Throughout the Unit you will learn about driving Striker and how to begin to code Striker for autonomous movement so that you can participate in the Robot Skills Challenge during the competition season.
