Draft:Storming Robots

Submission declined on 5 March 2026 by AllWeKnowOfHeaven (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

Storming Robots is a robotics and computer science education center based in Branchburg, New Jersey. The program provides courses and project-based training in robotics engineering, computer programming, and computational thinking for middle- and high-school students. Its curriculum focuses on algorithmic problem-solving, software development, and engineering design through robotics projects and programming instruction.

History

Storming Robots was founded by Elizabeth Mabrey in New Jersey with the goal of introducing students to engineering and computer science through hands-on robotics projects and structured programming instruction. The program was established to emphasize computational thinking, algorithm development, and systematic engineering practices in robotics education.

Over time, the organization expanded its curriculum to include multiple levels of programming and robotics courses designed to support students interested in advanced STEM learning and technical competitions.

Programs

Storming Robots offers courses in robotics engineering and computer science for students typically ranging from middle school through high school. Programs include instruction in programming languages such as C and C++ for building machine-level intuition, robotics hardware systems, and software design principles.

The curriculum emphasizes:

Computational thinking and algorithm design
Embedded programming and robotics control systems
Engineering documentation and system design
Project-based robotics development

Students work on robotics projects that integrate software programming with mechanical and electronic components.

Competitions and Activities

Students from Storming Robots have participated in several technology and robotics competitions. These include:

RoboCupJunior, an international robotics competition focused on autonomous robotics challenges
ACSL (American Computer Science League) programming competitions
Zero Robotics, a programming competition organized by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and NASA. (see some past postings here -

Participation in these competitions is used as a platform for applying programming and engineering concepts learned through coursework.

Educational Approach

Storming Robots’ teaching approach emphasizes computational thinking and systematic engineering design. The program integrates programming instruction with robotics development projects intended to demonstrate the practical application of college level computer science concepts.

Instruction often includes algorithm design, debugging strategies, modular programming, and iterative engineering processes.

Location

Storming Robots operates from Branchburg, New Jersey, and serves students primarily from the surrounding region
