Mouser Sponsors Robotics Team HUGE in BattleBots Competition

June 6, 2018 - Mouser Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction leader empowering innovation, is pleased to announce that it will be a major sponsor of Team HUGE as they compete in the 2018 BattleBots tournament. BattleBots is a television series available in 150 countries in which competitors design and operate remote-controlled armed and armored machines designed to fight in a combat elimination tournament.

Team HUGE, based in South Windsor, Conn., is scheduled to compete in episode 5, airing on the Discovery Channel, June 8 at 7 p.m., and on the Science Channel, June 13 at 8 p.m. (both Central Daylight Time).
