VEX Robotics Challenge

Quarterly Focus

This quarter's U.N. Sustainable Development Goal is GOAL 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

Focus on making learning fun and engaging. Be creative with your presentation!

Read the challenge below, then brainstorm, plan, design, and build your creation in robotics.

The STEM Challenge

Let's Get Started!

Create and build your team's robot for this year's game 2024 - 25. This challenge will expose students to the engineering design process. As well as gain valuable skills like communication, collaboration and time-management.

Don't have your field or elements yet????

Don't worry this challenge will begin 1st quarter and end 2nd quarter.

Rules:

First Part of Challenge - Showcase your robot build in the video, talk about your design and the process.

-One robot per school

-Your robot build must be able to perform in this year's game

-Your field can be modified to showcase your robot.

Second Part of Challenge - Robot Skills Challenge - Showcase your robot performing according to your game

VIQRC -One robot playing alone against the clock, show your driver challenging the clock on camera with at least one task from the current game. (If you do not have this year's elements, please substitute and complete task within 30 seconds). Your whole video submission with explanation should be about 2:00 minutes.

V5RC - One robot playing alone against the clock, show your driver challenging the clock on camera with at least one task from the current game. (If you do not have this year's elements, please substitute and complete task within 30 seconds). Your whole video submission with explanation should be about 2:00 minutes.

-In your video, please have your time keeper show the time during your challenge on camera.

To be eligible, teams must:

1. REGISTER YOUR TEAM (Links to an external site.): Ask your teacher/coordinator to register your team ----> SEE BELOW

2. Submit a video and explain your build, code and VR skills actions in the video through Canvas.

Things to keep in mind for a successful submission:

Explain your design
The effective use of sensors should be explained as well as any functions within your code
Creative and innovative uses of programming, behavior, algorithms or sensors is encouraged
The point score earned during your Programming Skills runs is a factor in your submission- a high quality entry may not necessarily have a high score, but effectively explains and documents how the code, behavior, algorithms and sensors are utilized for an autonomous program that is effective.

- Title of submission
- School name and coach name
- Names of students who participated (using first names only is acceptable - maximum of 5 students)
