High school students, seasoned engineers, robots, and a six-week competition: Robot Town

In 2006, Caterpillar Inc. - a worldwide supplier of technology and heavy machinery - sponsored two teams for the International F.I.R.S.T. robotics competition, founded by inventor Dean Kamen. Re-live the excitement as the teams design and build their robots, travel from Peoria, Illinois to the regional competition in Chicago, then journey to Atlanta, Georgia, for the national competition.

Robot Town is a local public television program presented by WTVP.
