In the VEX Robotics Competition, teams of students are tasked with designing and building a robot to play against other teams in a game-based engineering challenge. The VEX competitions, are always played on a 12’ x 12’ field, but the scoring objects and rules of the game are changed every year. This keeps things fresh and presents students with an ever-changing engineering problems to solve.
