IEEE Iowa-Illinois Section & Computer Society Meeting - QC Elite Robotics Team Demonstration & Pizza Lunch
QC Elite Team 648 Robotics ( www.qcelite.com ) competes annually to inspire its Quad Cities high school participants to be future engineers and scientists. Each January, teams across the country receive a robot kit, and must design and build a robot over the next two months to compete against robots from other teams in the region, leading to the international competition. Each year’s contest is new, requiring distinctive robot behaviors.
QC Elite is nearing completion of its 2026 season. The team will display and explain the mechanical, electrical, and programming features of this year’s robot that distinguish it from past competitions, and will also demonstrate the behavior of a working robot from a previous competition.
The tour and lunch will be held at their maker space on the north side of Southpark Mall across from the Riverbend Food Bank and near VonMaur - "QC STEM Alliance".
We will order pizza for lunch for the Section members, SAU Student Branch and for the Flaming Squirrels.
