“Huskie Robotics and three other teams in the FIRST Robotics Midwest Regional were sponsored by Lisle-based Navistar, which provides financial support for parts and technical support for construction, said Kristin Sattayatam, director of employee communications and community relations.
It’s exciting for Navistar experts to work with students from Naperville, as well as Chicago, Oswego and Yorkville, on robot handling techniques and construction.
“They are really developing these robots from nothing,” Sattayatam said. “They’re really learning skills well beyond what you would think of as typical engineering skills.””
