Mechanical Advantage, Team 16884

Mechanical Advantage is a FIRST Tech. Challenge robotics team comprised of high school students. The team provides hands-on robotics demonstrations to attendees at community events. The team's robots are no more than 18" cubed and can operated from a table top and on the ground (i.e., driven) depending on available space. The team has operated from both a 10' x 10' and 10' x 20' booth at past Expo Events. The team's past participation has been sponsored by companies like Cox Communications.

SYSTRA IBT

Test your knowledge of bridges as our engineers demonstrate the concepts of bridge engineering using scale models built with K'NEX blocks. Visitors will discover how bridges are designed and built and learn how they, too, can become bridge engineers.

TaylorMade Golf Company

Team TaylorMade engineers will demonstrate the mechanics involved behind some of the greatest innovations in golf.

KGTV ABC 10News

Don't miss the ABC 10News Experience, a hands-on opportunity for kids to see how television news is created and what it is like to be a reporter or anchor. Learn how graphics are made, try your hand reading scripts, see being on camera comes together in a news story, weather report or breaking news. Meet some of the ABC 10News Anchors, Reporters and Meteorologists who do this every day!

Urban Discovery Schools

Student and staff representatives will showcase their interactive Exhibition design challenge that focuses on an environmental issue in California. The students will engage the audience in a recyclable sorting game, as well as present their proposals and prototypes on how to combat the environmental issue. The presentation will demonstrate the Design Thinking process.

UCSD Biomedical Engineering Society

UCSD BMES will create a model of the cardiovascular system for SDFSE 2023. We will use a system of clear tubing along with red colored water and clear orbeez to simulate the major arteries of the system and red blood cells. We will connect this system to a manual pump for the user to interact with. With each pump, LED lights connected to an arduino will indicate heart rate, blood oxygenation, and fluid flow.

UCSD Bioengineering Graduate Society

UCSD BEGS will present 2 bioengineering demos at SDFSE 2023. The first demo showcases engineering design principles in the form of brainstorming, designing, and building a bacteriophage that will “attack” a bacteria of their choosing. The second demo will focus on tissue properties and structures as it relates to creating solutions for problems in human health. Students will replicate different tissue layers with common household items for bone, skin, and cardiac tissue.

FTC Team High Voltage #18263

Our goal is to inspire the youth to learn about STEM and robotics. Robotics is a fun way to explore building and programming, leading to solving world problems. Our team is conducting many interactive robot sessions throughout the year at different locations. We want to advertise our robot sessions and invite a lot of kids to our sessions. We also want to encourage kids to participate in FTC (First Tech Challenge) robotics competitions.
