Redfish Robotics is a team of students from Slidell High School. They were invited to demonstrate the possibility of robotic pizza delivery to national Domino's franchise holders at their annual New Orleans convention, where the company is looking to get their product to the customers, faster.

Now they are competing in the tech challenge division of the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) World Championships.
