The VEX Robotics Competition, presented by the Robotics Education & Competition Foundation, is a robotics competition in which students are challenged with a new game that they must design a robot to compete in with the VEX EDR system. Students work in small groups to design, prototype, built, and program their robot to best play the game. Students learn how to problem solve and work as a team at a small scale with minimal adult intervention. Students are then able to compete at multiple different competitions, where they can qualify to compete at the district championships, where they have the ability to advance to the world finals in Louisville, Kentucky.
