Today, throwing a frisbee...tomorrow the world!

That's the idea behind this robot competition in Indiana.

Four high schools and about 100 students have set up teams to design a frisbee-throwing robot.

The contest is organized by a non-profit organization promoting science and technology.

The kids spend 20 to 26 hours a week after school working on the project.

The winning team goes on to the regional competition next month at Purdue University.
