The Heroes of Tomorrow (HOT) Team is located in southeastern Michigan and is comprised of students from Milford High School (Milford), Lakeland High School (White Lake), and the International Academy West (White Lake) who are paired with mentors with similar interests from General Motors Proving Ground and Huron Valley Schools. The HOT Team’s mission is to inspire students’ interest in science and technology. The mentors and students work together to build products that are judged in FIRST Robotics regional competitions and the Championship Event. Products include a robot capable of playing a game designed by the FIRST Game Design Committee and documentation of the success of the team with multimedia technology. The HOT Team has been very successful and is recognized as one of the best teams in the world. We earned the FIRST Chairman’s Award in 2005, earning our team a place in the FIRST Hall of Fame.
