    Mission 

    Favoriser l’Inspiration et la Reconnaissance des Sciences et de la Technologie (FIRST) auprès des jeunes du Québec, en les engageant dans un programme innovant de mentorat en robotique qui s’appuie sur l’expertise d’ingénieurs, d’universitaires et d’autres membres de la communauté, tout en promouvant un modèle de vie équilibré et enrichissant, et en développant des compétences et aptitudes incontournables : la confiance en soi, la communication, le travail d’équipe, le professionnalisme et le leadership.

     

    Vision 

     

    «Nous créons un monde où les sciences et la technologie sont célébrées et où les jeunes participants rêvent de devenir les futurs créateurs et innovateurs du Québec de demain.» Laurent Beaudoin, Président du CA de Bombardier Inc. et de Robotique FIRST Québec.

     

      Méthodologie 

      

    Engagez les élèves de la maternelle à la 12e année/CEGEP (âgés de 4 à 18 ans) dans des programmes de recherche et de robotique, guidé par des mentors, qui les aident à devenir des leaders scientifiques et technologiques, ainsi que des contributeurs positif à la société. 

      

    FIRST fonctionne parce que nos programmes utilisent des stratégies connues pour accroître l'intérêt des étudiants envers STIM : apprentissage pratique, travail en équipe sur des problèmes de la vie réelle, exposition à des carrières, accent mis sur les valeurs fondamentales de FIRST et une célébration culminante où les étudiants peuvent présenter ce qu'ils ont créé et appris.  

     
     
    Les participants de FIRST développent également des compétences en travail d'équipe, en résolution de problèmes et en communication, les préparant à réussir à l'école et sur le marché du travail, quel que soit le chemin qu'ils empruntent. 

     

      Fondateur 

      

    Dean Kamen est un inventeur prolifique, un entrepreneur et un défenseur infatigable de la science et de la technologie. Sa passion et sa détermination à aider les jeunes à découvrir l'excitation et les récompenses de la science et de la technologie sont les pierres angulaires de FIRST. Depuis plus de 30 ans, Kamen a résolument dirigé la croissance de FIRST où il est maintenant universellement reconnu comme le principal programme d'engagement STIM à but non lucratif pour les enfants du monde entier.

     FIRST - Valeurs fondamentales 

     

    La conception d’un robot exige un travail de précision et de haute qualité, la concurrence en tournoi est féroce et l’apprentissage difficile. Grâce au professionnalisme coopératif tous les participants se traitent avec respect et s’entraident tout au long du processus. Tous les programmes FIRST s’appuient sur des valeurs à long terme, qui aident à la poursuite d’une vie plus équilibrée et qui encouragent plus d’implication dans la société, tout en jouissant de la satisfaction d’agir avec respect et intégrité.

    • Inspiration
    • Reconnaissance
    • Professionnalisme coopératif
    • Respect
    • Inclusion
    • Sécurité

     
    Professionnalisme gracieux® 

      

    Dr. Woodie Flowers (1943 - 2019), président émérite et conseiller distingué de l'EAB, a inventé le terme "Gracious Professionalism®". 

      Le professionnalisme courtois fait partie de la philosophie de FIRST. C'est une façon de faire les choses qui encourage un travail de haute qualité, met l'accent sur la valeur des autres et respecte les individus et la communauté. 

      Avec le professionnalisme gracieux, la concurrence féroce et le gain mutuel ne sont pas des notions distinctes. Les professionnels aimables apprennent et rivalisent comme des fous, mais se traitent les uns les autres avec respect et gentillesse. Ils évitent de traiter quiconque comme des perdants. Pas de discours dur à la poitrine, mais pas de platitudes douces et collantes non plus. La connaissance, la compétition et l'empathie sont confortablement mélangées. 

      À long terme, le professionnalisme gracieux fait partie de la poursuite d'une vie significative. On peut ajouter à la société et profiter de la satisfaction de savoir qu'on a agi avec intégrité et sensibilité. 

     

     
    Coopération® 

     

     La Coopération® produit de l'innovation. Chez FIRST, Coopertition fait preuve d'une gentillesse et d'un respect sans réserve face à une concurrence féroce. La coopération est fondée sur le concept et sur une philosophie selon laquelle les équipes peuvent et doivent s'entraider et coopérer entre elles même lorsqu'elles sont en compétition. 

     La cooptation consiste à apprendre de ses coéquipiers. C'est enseigner aux coéquipiers. C'est apprendre des mentors. Et c'est gérer et être géré. La cooptation signifie toujours rivaliser, mais aider et permettre aux autres quand vous le pouvez.

    Want to learn what you can change and accomplish with the AM14U5? Start here for a look at all the things this frame can do for you.



    A large format, infinitely configurable drive platform is designed and built with performance in mind. You are getting a drive chassis that has three main configurations (Long, Square & Wide) as starting options. The drop center wheel allows for smoother turning ability, while maintaining stability.

     

    Perfect for prototyping robotic applications as well as being part of the final design!

     

    The 5th major upgrade to this chassis with many more minor revisions. Our AM14U family of products have built upon the lessons learned since the first AM14U was designed in 2013.  And it was a major upgrade to the C-base chassis that was part of the FIRST Kit of Parts since 2009.

     

    This is the "AM" - "ONE" - "FOR" - "YOU"!

     

    This product ships as an un-assembled kit. It features HiGrip Wheels, Toughbox Mini Gearboxes, and Gates HTD Belts.

     

    Shipping Box Size: 34 in. x 7 in. x 7 in.

     

    Assembly and cutting of aluminum is required. See the Assembly Videos below.

     

    If this chassis is being used for the FIRST Robotics Competition, please consider the robot perimeter rules and size this chassis accordingly. The manual helps clearly show where to make cuts for different sizes, you can adapt your cuts to fit as needed.

     

    NOTE: This chassis DOES NOT include the following as there are many options for each case:

     

    • CIM motors (am-0255)
    • Bumper Hardware Mount Kit (am-3966)
      • Recommended method to mount bumpers to this chassis.

    • Smallest Frame size: 24.3 in. x 27 in.
    • Largest Frame size: 32.3 in. x 31 in.

     

    It is shipped as a Kit with plates that can build in a large square configuration. This makes it the largest possible size and allows for the user to trim the length and width of the chassis to become a long, wide, or a smaller square to fit different the size constraints of each specific year. The assembly instructions show how it can be changed, be sure to check out the assembly videos as well.

     

    Multiple Wheel And Build Configuration Options:

     

    For even more wheel and build configurations, check out our AM14U4 & AM14U5 Wheel Upgrades!

    Encoder Options:

     

    The AM14U5 does not include encoders. The Toughbox Mini gearboxes included in the AM14U5 ship with an output shaft (am-2566b) that has two holes in the end for optional included 1/4" diameter steel dowels (am-1323) that are compatible with the US Digital E4T Encoder (am-3132) and the REV Through Bore Encoder (am-4650). Teams also have the option of purchasing a magnetic dowel (am-3505) to replace the steel dowel allowing the use of the SRX Magnetic Encoder (am-3445). In order to use this encoder on the Toughbox Mini, our SRX Magnetic Encoder Mounting Hardware Kit (am-3565) must also be used to mount each encoder.

    These aluminum box extrusions are robust and lightweight solutions for custom robot frames, superstructures and mechanism construction. Made to all of your favorite English sizes, the classic 2x1 thin wall tubing is now joined by its thicker-walled counterpart. We have also introduced two thicknesses of 1x1 sizes that teams know and love to build their medium-sized mechanisms. 



    For smaller mechanisms, we recommend using our 5/8 square box tube that is also compatible with our S3 line of brackets and gussets.



    Available Sizes:

    • 2 x 1 x 1/16 in. (0.063 in.) 6061-T6 alloy

    Climber in a Box - 2 Stage

    #am-4668
    $324.00
    (3 En stock)

    The AndyMark Climber in a Box is a robust, lightweight, configurable and affordable solution for climbing challenges historically present in FRC end game periods. The design of Climber in a Box has been inspired by many team designs along the way including 254 and 2056. The final prototype for this climber was developed in partnership with FRC Team 3940 CyberTooth for the 2020/2021 Infinite Recharge season. This mechanism has been battle tested with hundreds of climbs on a full weight FRC Robot without failures, both in development and real match play. Available in single and two stage configurations, this product should help teams of all levels elevate their team's performance at competitions.

     

    This product uses a "spring out, winch back" powertrain strategy, using off-the-shelf 3.5lb constant force springs to raise the included Hook Kit, and 3mm Dyneema Rope to retract it with the included Winch Kit. Simply unspool the included rope using a planetary gearbox to raise the hook(s), drive the robot up to the bar, and winch it back to elevate your robot. The AndyMark Climber in a Box does not include a motor or gearbox, but is compatible with many off-the-shelf planetary gearboxes on the market that have a 2" bolt circle mounting pattern and support a 2" long 1/2" hex output shaft, including the highly durable blue Sport Gearboxes.

     

    The bearing kits within this product are designed to go from 2" square 1/16" wall aluminum tubing, down to a 1" square 1/16" wall tube, with a 1.5" square 1/16" wall tube in between for the 2 stage flavor of this product. A combination of durable 608 bearings and custom molded plastic components provide the bearing surfaces for a free-flowing telescoping tube mechanism with no 3D printed parts. Each stage has a maximum travel of 24.5."

     

    The AndyMark Climber in a Box is an unassembled kit of everything you need (besides a gearmotor) that is designed to not require any precision machining in order to make your FRC robot climb. The plates included within the Hook Kit, Bearing Kits and Winch Kit are all designed to be assembled and used as drill guides for match drilling their mounting locations onto the aluminum tubes. Each tube is pre-cut to a 30" length so no cutting of the tubes is required to achieve maximum travel.

    VMX FRC Training Bot

    #74000
    Demander un devis

    The Studica VMX FRC-compatible Training Bot (FRC Trainer) is a smaller, sturdy, lightweight, and less expensive robot than your typical FRC robot. If you have a large FRC team, often only a handful of students get to learn how to create and program your team’s costly competition robot.  The FRC Trainer solves this problem and is ideal for groups of two to three to participate in hands-on learning in a classroom environment.  Schools can equip their labs with multiple FRC Trainers, benefiting from the great value and compact size. Students can even take it home with them! 

    This affordable solution is intended for:

    • FRC teams that want to learn and train on a smaller and more affordable robot,
    • Schools looking for a way to teach FRC robotics in the classroom.
    • Schools that want to teach coding in the classroom through robotics.

    The FRC-compatible Trainer is an intelligent and autonomous robot that uses the VMX Advanced Robotics Controller which can be programmed in C++ and Java.  VMX’s multitude of modern digital communications interfaces and Linux-based operating system allow users to directly access most modern devices (e.g., Intel RealSense tracking and depth cameras and LIDAR).
