The Outliers is a community-based team with students from grades 8-12 in the Portland, Maine area. Our student team members are responsible for programming, building, and working in CAD (computer aided design) to create competition-ready robots. Although we are currently passionate teenagers, we plan to put our skills to use in the workforce becoming professional developers, creators, and innovators!
