About us

The Deep State of Robots

The Alumiboti strive to be a premier FIRST Robotics Competition Team in Western New York. We will achieve this by building a solid team built on trust, respect, and technical competency.

Who We Are

Our Story

FIRST Team 5590 was founded in 2015 and participated in the FRC game Recycle Rush. The team started with five mentors and ten students, and its size has fluctuated. The team is headquartered out of St. Joseph’s Collegiate Insitute located in Buffalo, New York, where we have built up our own semi-complete robotics lab with the school’s and our sponsors’ help. All our students attend St. Joseph’s Collegiate Institute and share a passion for robotics and STEM.

Most of our mentors have been industry engineers from local companies who donate their time to the team, along with a few faculty members from our home school, St. Joseph’s Collegiate Institute. Some of these mentors and faculty are FIRST alumni themselves.
