The _FIRST_ Tech Challenge seeks to inspire youth to become the next generation of STEM leaders and innovators through participation in mentor-guided robotics competition. Teams who participate in the _FIRST_ Tech Challenge must build a robot that performs a variety of tasks. The tasks vary from season to season, and are based on a set of game rules that are published at the start of each season. The more tasks that a robot can complete, the more points a team will earn.

A _FIRST_ Tech Challenge match has an _autonomous_ phase and a _driver-controlled_ or _"tele-operated"_ phase. In the autonomous phase of a match the robot operates without any human input or control. In the driver-controlled phase, the robot can receive input from up to two human drivers.
