The official FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) SDK for building the Android app that controls a competition robot. It provides the robot controller framework, hardware access, and sample OpModes for programming in Java via Android Studio.
Use cases
- program an FTC competition robot in Java
- build and deploy the FTC robot controller app with Android Studio
- access motors, sensors, and servos on the FTC control system
- write custom OpModes for the DECODE 2025-2026 season
- learn robot programming with the FTC SDK
When to choose
- you are on an FTC team programming your robot in Java with Android Studio
- you need the official, season-current robot controller SDK
- you want sample OpModes and hardware APIs for the FTC control system
When to avoid
- you program only with Blocks or OnBot Java (no Android Studio needed)
- you are competing in a different robotics program like FRC or VEX
- you need a general-purpose robotics framework outside FTC
