Our Mission:
The unique circumstances provided by FIRST allow students to surmount tremendous challenges and showcase their effort on an international scale. Through their participation in FIRST Robotics Competition, students learn how to work in a team environment and collaborate in a competitive setting in order to build a robot in a short span of 6 weeks.
Participating in Team 7157 allows students to gain experience in the STEM fields as well as business in a world that’s becoming increasingly reliant on technological innovations. Our team inspires an excitement in STEM at our school and local community, and the indispensable knowledge gained through this opportunity carries with students as they go on to study in the future.

Our Origins
Team 7157 began as a rookie FRC team operating out of Brea Olinda High School with little to no resources, leading to a robot built in a mentor’s garage equipped with only a drill press, and a table saw.
In spite of these setbacks, μBotics functioned as distinguished OC Regional semi-finalist, recipient of the “Rookie All-Star Award,” and competitor at the 2018 World Championships within their first year.

About Us
After a successful first season, Team 7157 expanded its reach to Fullerton, working with students from there. Continuing their local STEM enrichment, μbotics mentors the Junior High’s VEX team and Fanning Elementary School’s FIRST Lego League Program, helping host a local Vex competition in May of 2022.

Our Future
At the beginning of the 2022 build season, Team 7157 moved into a facility at Brea Olinda High School. That year they won the Imagery Award and Regional Finalists at all three regionals they participated in. Qualifying for worlds that year, they returned to Houston for the first time in five years where they got quarterfinalists in their division. They are currently working on expanding their new machine shop and outreach to new members of the community.
