About FIRST South Carolina

FIRST South Carolina (FSC) is the official regional organization supporting FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) teams across the state. Our mission is to raise the technical floor of all teams by sharing knowledge, resources, and code.

Whether you are a rookie team trying to make your robot drive, or a veteran team implementing NPU-accelerated AprilTag detection, the FSC community is here to support you.

  3. A description of what is actually happening (with videos or error logs!).
