ABOUT US
Team 4810 I.AM.ROBOT is an FRC team located in Clinton Township, MI. We were founded in December of 2012, a little less than a month before kickoff, making this our 14th year competing. That first year we won the Rookie All-Star award and made our way to the FRC Championship. Ever since then our team has grown from 7 students and 2 mentors to about 54 students and 23 mentors. Our members come from across Macomb County.
We pride ourselves on being a student-run team with support from our mentors. The bonds formed throughout the season create a well-rounded team dynamic, but more importantly, a family atmosphere that goes beyond the build season and into off-season picnics, dinners, and bonfires.
These activities are only possible by the constant support and communication we have with our sponsors, which gives us the opportunity to further develop our love and passion for STEM.
Every day our team makes the commitment to dedicate our time to not only building a new robot every year, but spreading awareness of STEM and FIRST throughout our community as much as possible. See our outreach page for more information!

CAD
BUILD
What's this about:
Designing is very important. Our robot can't be made without designing it first. The way we do this is through a software called CAD. When we use CAD, we have a saying that goes, "it always works in CAD" meaning it may not work in the real world, but it will always work in CAD which is why the builders and designers comunicate.
After the designing process we start building. What the builders do is take the design of the robot and they put together the pieces to make the mechanical part of it.
electronic
PROGRAMMING
ELECTRICAL
What is this about:
The next step in building our robot involves ELECTRICITY!! This is the third step in the robot building process where our students use their electrical skills to wire the robot which connects all the mechanical pieces to make it move the way it does.
Now during the time that design, build, and electrical are building the robot, the programming students are making code that makes the robot do what we need it to do for when the time comes. This is the last step in the process of building the robot making it BATTLE ready!!
STRATEGY
SCOUTING
STRATEGY
What is all this:
Scouting is the process we created that allows us to acquire the strategy of all the other robotics teams at the competition so that when we compete, we can better understand how the play to our advantage. This also allows us to create our own strategy to work our way to the top.
BUSINESS
MEDIA
SPONSORSHIPS
OUTREACH
AWARDS
Then there's this:
Media involves all our social media platforms and what you're reading right now, that involves our media. Our sponsors our how we get our income. They are the reason we're still a team. You can see what our outreach is through the Outreach part of our website. Lastly if you want to know the awards aspect of our team you can go to our Awards page.
WE.BUild.FUtures
This has been our teams slogan since 2020, however since 2020 this slogan has changed in meaning. WE.BUILD.FUTURES first meant that we were building the STEM futures' of the students on our team. But now, this slogan no longer refers to only our team, but rather our entire community. We are not just building the future of our students, we are building the future of every person who we reach. Weather through our participation is the FIRST Robotics Competition, or through our STEM outreach events, this team will always strive to build the future of anyone and everyone we can.
