The Variables, a robotics team from the Altamont School, received the judge’s award during the FIRST Lego League World Competition in April.
The team includes Mountain Brook resident Noah Warren and Hoover residents Jaye Conn and Toby Conn. The theme for this year’s competition was “The Trash Trek Challenge,” which presents teams with the challenge of exploring the collection, sorting, production and reuse of trash. The Variables’ project mission looked at K-Cups, which are not biodegradable, and the problems they can present to landfills.
