We, Project Peacock, are a world-class FIRST Tech Challenge team based in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the Tulsa Robotics Center.
We are the first of four FTC teams in STEAM Post 26, a Tulsa-based 4H organization. Our members come from all over the Tulsa area, and from many diverse backgrounds. Since 2015, we have been a top team in Oklahoma, bringing innovation, creativity, and ingenuity to the competition.
Our team is very active in the community, leading outreach events across the state to encourage and empower youth to explore STEAM fields. Each season we spend hundreds of hours reaching out to the community to spread the message of FIRST and the principles of Gracious Professionalism, Coopertition, communication, and creative thinking.
Project Peacock prides itself on entirely custom manufactured robots. We make extensive use of CAD, designing every piece of our robots before manufacturing them in-house using our CNC and 3D Printing capabilities. This process is done entirely by our members, with many putting in hundreds or even thousands of hours to the creation of each robot.
Between seasons, our members improve their individual skill sets through classes in CAD, programming, manufacturing, resume writing, and more. Some members compete in international CAD competitions, meeting other students in FIRST from around the globe. These experiences make for a stronger team, and more capable budding engineers for the future.
