VEXIQ – Fall 2018

The VEXIQ Challenge is an annual competition which includes a grades 4 & 5 Division and a Middle School Division.

  • Our 2018 Fall session is open for kids in grades 4 to 8. (Elementary and Middle School Teams meet separately.)
  • VEXIQ Team members will design and build a robot which can score the most points on this year’s challenge board by remote control and by autonomous programming.
  • Programming is learned and executed using a language known as RobotC – which is a version of C.
  • Participants will work on the construction of the VEXIQ robotic system, including the use of sensors, and will be responsible for an “Engineer’s Notebook” where they will document their odyssey.
  • Our fall teams will compete in local competitions – dates TBD. We anticipate 2 competitions and are hopeful that at least one competition will take place in Boca Raton.
  • At our first meeting, our VEXIQ teams will choose their own team names.

Our 2018 VEXIQ Fall Robotics teams will meet once a week, for a total of 30 hours each team.
